Fringe interview: Timotei Cobeanu – If Mouth Could Speak

Fringe interview: Timotei Cobeanu – If Mouth Could Speak

by Kirstyn Smith | Aug 23, 2019 | Fringe, Interview, Mental health, Theatre

    If Mouth Could Speak is just over half an hour of sharp beats, dizzying words, electronica and jazz encircling a young immigrant who is troubled by suicidal ideation. We caught up with writer and performer Timotei Cobeanu to talk about men’s mental...

Fringe review: Suzi Ruffell – Dance Like Everyone’s Watching

by Kirstyn Smith | Aug 17, 2019 | Comedy, Fringe, Mental health

by Kirstyn Smith | Aug 15, 2019 | Fringe, Mental health, Review, Theatre

  Shut Up, Helen! at least has the humility to acknowledge that a meet cute in a therapist’s waiting room is pushing it a bit. Like a scene from the most hipster of indie flicks, two painfully socially awkward 20-somethings find love in a hopeless place, but both...
Fringe interview: Cheryl Martin – Alaska

Fringe interview: Cheryl Martin – Alaska

by Kirstyn Smith | Aug 13, 2019 | Fringe, Interview, Mental health, Theatre

    Cheryl Martin’s show, Alaska, is named after a line in the Lou Reed song ‘Caroline Says II’. ‘It’s so cold in Alaska.’ It’s a reference to Martin’s emotions, which often feel cold and numb before something happens to warm them up again. Alaska is about...
