Nocturnes

Co-Writer, Assistant Director

Nocturnes
Adapted from the book by John Connolly
Productions @ Hale School

This was my first writing project with Danny Parker, whereby I initially was typing up the text from the novel, to make it quicker for Danny to cut and plough through it.

In the process, I ended up adapting several of the produced stories, and some unproduced for the production. With Danny Parker acting as a judicious script editor, we developed four stylised theatrical interpretations of John Connoly's horror stories about witches, omens and curses.

• Liaised with the Director of Productions to adapt a novel, Nocturnes, into an ensemble theatre piece.
• Provided general office, rehearsal and performance assistance in the form of coffee runs, note taking, typing, photocopying, warming up actors and managing the cast pre-show.
• Developed the soundscapes, incorporating music and ambient sounds, for the production.
