"Simon says"

Simon Says: Take your seats 
Simon Says: clap your hands and stamp your feet! The show is about to begin! 
Simon Says is the perfect mix of live music, comedy, and playful chaos. Simon is the ultimate games master, as he leads kids (and grown-ups who dare to join in!) through a whirlwind of silly challenges, wacky songs, and side-splitting comedy. Even Simon has to do what Simon says!
Can you keep up with Simon’s rules? Or will he catch you out in a hilarious game of quick thinking?
Simon Says: Book your tickets now!

I make work that is a combination of Circus, Dance, Theatre and Music,with a love of story and connection. I like work that can share philosophy or explore questions of the self, often using comedy. My interest is in the connections that lie between art forms, so my practice has become increasingly interdisciplinary. I studied Circus at Circomedia with a focus on object manipulation, physical theatre and clown. I went on to study contemporary dance at the northern school of contemporary dance, I have developed my skills as a beatboxer and vocalist creating music using loop stations and exploring the relationship between sound (rhythm, music) and movement (dance and emotive expression).
