Hi,
I’m posting videos and photos of Ninja Theatre and The Festival Game on facebook.

I also started a page for CashMo Jo my DJ persona.

so please “like” all of those and keep in touch with what I’m up to.

Planning for this years game is well under way.

This year there are no maps, instead players must qualify with a character and complete a series of sequential quests. These quests eventually lead into playing in grand events that involve all other qualified players.

For people interested in volunteering you need to go to the Woodford website. www.woodfordfolkfestival.com and click on participate and volunteer. Follow your nose through the process until you find the festival period section and under special skills you’ll find ‘game performer’ for the festival bureau of interactivity.

Best of luck and hope to see you there, it’ll be enormous amounts of fun.

Hi,

Been a long time since I updated so a few things to fill you in on.

Here is the page to see some photos from the Ninja Theatre project at the last Woodford Festival.

And here is my latest project at Woodford.

http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Festival-Game/186950344655857

Its called the game and is an interactive theatrical experience that thousands can play over several days. Probably deserves its own website, so with a little luck and some help from friends something should come together before we run it again at the coming Woodford Festival.

In other news I went to Europe (again) and studied with Jonathan Kay and Phillipe Gaulier. With Jonathan I studied character and improvisation in a workshop called fooling. With Phillipe I studied not being boring in a workshop called writing and directing.

Planning and plotting for the next Woodford now and a few other fun things along the way coming up.

Also planning on running a workshop in Melbourne in the spring. Will be about improvisation, interaction and character. Will be in touch with details.

This year at Woodford Festival Ninja Theatre is taking Festival flash mobbing to a whole new level.

Exciting dramas will unfold, impromptu dances, songs and a few more secret projects that’ll surprise you all.

CashMo Jo will play again at this years Woodford festival. From 1am NYE till late and again on Jan 1st from 11pm till late.

This years show promises to be full of on stage antics as the Dancenarium of doctor Funkenasses delivers a world of crazy characters and wild beats.

A few photos from Harvest Festival 2010.

On Saturday April 17 I will be burning a fire scupture as the finale to the Collingwood harvest festival.

The performance will be a simple fire display to celebrate the transition from Summer to Winter.

Last year we created a fire picture of rain and regrowth as a response to the then recent Black Saturday fires.

The year previous to that we created a fire picture of a large pumpkin patch.

The performance will be approximately 6:30pm.

It will be in the park at the base of the commission flats on Hoddle St. On the Hamsworth St side.

Hope you can make it.

For information about what the Feetbus is, please go to www.feettheatre.com

Saturday the 13th of March the Feetbus made a triumphant return. It had been in disrepair for over a year due to damage sustained at the Falls Festival 08/09. But now the bus has returned and is fully functional.

Throughout the year the bus will be undergoing a series of modifications to make it faster- stronger- funnier- better!

Stay tuned as the bus is retuned for return to a festival near you.

Detective D is an 8 foot tall detective that Stalks the streets with stealth and cluelessness. Investigating all manner of odd goings on and improbable possibilities. His logic is bent and yet he takes everything literally. Where will his investigations lead? Nobody knows, but we’ll all be intrigued to find out!

Detective D is a stiltwalking character and can roam for festivals and events. He can also provide stand up entertainment and for a very bent evening he can even MC.

Detective D is currently in development of 15 minute show called- It’s not yours it’s mind.
