Meet the self-proclaimed ‘silly goose’ and heart behind this 2024 Fringe show…
Briefly introduce yourself/your company…
Hello! I am a silly goose, first and foremost, with a particular penchant for words. I’m an avid storyteller, poet, and hip-hop artist. My abilities in juggling, dance, and finger painting are all roughly 4/10 according to my daughter.
What is it that makes your work/company unique?
As far as I know, this show is the closest thing to watching a “Behind The Music” style show on stage. The audience gets to interact with the back story and creation process of a hip-hop album while the music from the project drives the narrative forward.
What kind of experience do you hope audiences will have during your show?
I hope that people will see themselves or their experiences in what we bring to the stage because I want them to feel less alone. For me, life is easier when I remember that I’m not the only one going through what I’m going through.
Without spoilers, tell us what you think audiences will remember most about your show…
They’ll remember Islay – I’m quite sure of it. And if they want to know what Islay means, they’ll have to come to the show! 😘
