AN INNOCENT LITTLE MURDER Comedy Clubhouse Barcelona, April 2023
Involuntary adultery can easily lead to involuntary manslaughter, but getting rid of the body of evidence is a whole different matter... Jean-Pierre Martinez's comedic murder mystery will put you on the edge of your seat in this funny, sexy farce. Lies reveal secrets as this cosy dinner with friends becomes a tense standoff between slighted lovers....
ONDINE Edinburgh Fringe 2022
Impulsive, frank and filled with wonder, Ondine is a young water nymph drawn to the human world. One stormy night by the lake, she meets Hans, a knight-errant travelling through the nearby forest, and she immediately and violently falls in love with him. To free herself of the water world, Ondine makes a secret pact with the spirit of the lake, which ultimately brings about a tragic end. “Ondine” is just as poetic, thought-provoking, and deeply touching as it is uniquely absurd! It’s full of extravagant characters, unhinged dialogues and random digressions. This play will shatter all expectations!

Y GODDODIN, SCOTLAND’S OLDEST POEM: Edinburgh Fringe 2022
Around 600AD 300 mead-fed warriors from Gododdin (roughly today’s Lothians) set off from Din Eidyn (today’s Edinburgh) to do battle at Catraeth, Deira, in what is now northern England. Only one fighter came back. The Gododdin court poet, Aneirin, sang elegies, death odes, for the fallen, in Old Welsh, the language of the time. This modern English rendition in free verse commemorates the deaths of the Men of Gododdin. Dark, dark-age poetry, very bloody and poignant, a virtually unknown classic.
