Theatre Making

Current project
Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky in the 1972 World Chess Championship final

I'm researching and developing a new musical based on the life of 1972 World Chess Champion Bobby Fischer.  Following a great workshop at Theatro Technis, London in November, I'm working up the next version of the script.

A cartoon by Ab Solomons of the family climbing up symbolic stairs

My signature piece.  It's been critically-acclaimed and toured across the globe.  It's a solo show, based on the beautiful artwork of my Great-uncle Ab.
