The culmination of months of work, buried in my studio over most of the Summer. I was commissioned by the JW3 to score a series of short films about Jewish life from the BFI archives. Working on this project was an honour and a huge challenge but I got there, with the help of some amazing friends and talented colleagues/collaborators. 

The films premier at the UK Jewish Film Festival in Glasgow & London on the 17th  November at 1pm. London is almost SOLD-OUT, there is a Q&A after with myself, Maureen Lipman, Isy Suttie, Director Jon Spira & Mekella Broomberg (JW3).

​A little experiment from a show I was invited to perform at Antara Festival near reading last September (2018).  It was great to develop my solo material for this boutique intimate setting, a barn amongst friends and colleagues. I stayed for the whole weekend, chatted to fascinating people around the fire, ate incredible South Indian food 3 times a day and made many new friends. Thanks to Varun & Anupa for inviting me to this special gathering. 

The show went well I think, bit off piste at times, but that is the nature of these things. I'm happy with what I made in the moment and hope to keep building on this.
