Thanks everyone who came along to watch The Last Post live (which will be this month’s episode of The Last Post). It’s always quite fun setting your alarm for 3.30am to prep for a morning show (call time was 4:30, but I wanted to wake up fully, and there’s nothing worse than having to juggle two guests and an alternate ...

ETA2: Thankyou to everyone who watched live and is watching later - it’s a fairly solid version of the show, with a few good lines I forgot to do, as is always the case when you record anything. Not enough mistakes to pull down the stream so enjoy it until tomorrow evening, when I’ll make the link private. If you miss the...

Hallo!
If you’re not at MICF but wish you could see CHRONOS, I will stream it for all Patreonites next Friday the 16th of April. By that point I’m hoping it’ll be a show I’m pleased with.
I know technically it’s meant to be video content for the above $5 Patreonites, but I feel like the pandemic economy...

I made it in, and now I have a show that I’m building.
The salon this week is in U.K. time, 8pm Tuesday 5am Wednesday my time, (rather than 7am, which is what it was before, thanks daylight savings. I may in the future have to recalibrate the timezones, because the shif...

Hallo lovely Patreonites!
What a week of drama and Sisyphean admin. I’ll try to describe it in a way that is less boring and stressful than it was in real life, and get you up to date.

Hallo beautiful Patreonites, I’m on a family holiday in Queensland, writing to you from the beach, which is one of the few places I get reception here.
As such, this week’s Salon will be off.

I’m currently sat in a fancy hotel lobby, writing up my script for the ABC all stars Melbourne Gala show for television.

Today I sat down and had a look at my notes for CHRONOS, which I’m going to have to get into shape for MICF.
It’s funny thinking that I wrote this show more than a year ago, and having only performed it once, am to revive or rewrite it with another year under my belt. How much will I change, I think, going through ...

For everyone who’s been affected by the pandemic, it’s around that year-mark, give or take a month depending on geography.
I’ve been thinking about and wrestling all sorts of ideas - one...

Hallo lovely Patreonites
Things are moving. And by things I mean me. I’m moving (same suburb, new place), which is exciting and a little intimidating. After so long subletting, month-to-month-lease-ing and living with family, getting a proper flat means basically admitting that I’m not in the U.K. any mo...
