16 Postcodes had a very long gestation period and a sudden sort of birth. I had been playing around with short form monologues, writing a few here and there but the concept really coalesced on the six mile walks I would take in Walthamstow looping around the River Lea during the pandemic when there was little else to do but think and walk. Totting up all my addresses over the years and arriving at 16, I had a title and a format in a way. What if I did 16 monologues? In an hour?? FUN, RIGHT?

Make no mistake, the writing is dated and it’s far from being a masterpiece, but the production does something that’s so specifically disturbing that it’s difficult to ignore.
