A rollicking night of cabaret storytelling about…post-natal depression?!
Ten years ago, I started writing a show.
It was RAZAMATAZZ. It had a clown, and songs, and something about a grand piano.
But then I had kids, and life got in the way, and that show never quite made it through. Now I'm a decade older, I've decided I'm going to make my comeback and finish it off.
This is my chance to make a mark.
To deal with the Big Stuff.
To leave an inheritance for when I've gone.
As well as dealing with some of the unrecognised hardships faced by new mothers, it explores our complicated relationships with making music, and the question of what we leave behind. It's brave, uncompromising, and ultimately life affirming, blending hilarious clowning, heartfelt storytelling and raucous cello songs.
