Shedman (aka writer and poet John Davies) first appeared at Brighton's Booth Museum in 2002. Now celebrating ten years in the shed, Shedman returns to Brighton to premiere his Shed Show as part of Pighog on the Fringe at The Brighton Fringe Festival. This performance explores collisions of the mundane and the menacing with a vivacious variety of mood and form. The intelligence and humour present in Shedman's poetry and story telling make his collection of oral histories a strange and moving journey in his mysterious wooden edifice.
If you struggle to get your man even to buy you flowers, Moss Rich's poems will melt your heart with a lifetime of love poems written to his wife Milly to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries. Pighog Press published a selection of the poems as Lifetime of Love in a boxed set in 2011. The performance puts his poems in their historical context including his association with the Unity Theatre in the 1930s and the whole arc of Jewish culture through the twentieth century. This adaptation, starring Nic Choulman and Raymond Daniel-Davies, brings the poems to life in a promenade performance including projections and audio at the Bali Brasserie in Hove.
