Having signed the freelance contract (to start on 1st Feb), I can now focus again on the creative aspect of my life (sounds dramatic)...the new solo show is coming together nicely enough, as is the soap opera stuff. Confirmed Emma for a second series of our little podcast sitcom, the first series has hardly taken off but I'm really proud of it and it's just nice to have it out there...and easy to do, too. Those who have listened have really, really enjoyed it so hopefully we can build a cult following?
Also, spoke to a few more tour venues, opened talks about performing stand-up to a bunch of pensioners in Snowdonia, and spoke to the ever adventurous Helen about ways to keep my life exciting as I'm feeling a little flat right now (she's currently in Italy for a month, but meeting her for lunch in Somerset soon before she moves to Edinburgh).
Ticket sales for the London residency this weekend are a bit alarming to say the least (8 for Saturday, 1 for Sunday) but I rehearsed the show, solo, today and I think it'll be quite good. Louise popped around and asked me loads of questions (and filmed my responses) about being a playwright for the school that she works at and then thanks to a random series of events I ended up watching an improv show tonight. I'm not proud of myself, I still prefer shows that use writers.
