Dear friends,
As some of you may know, in 2024 I managed to write my 4th original play - Goodness Me. After producing my previous show, Love (to) Bits, in 2022, I had to let creativity take a backseat to focus on finishing my counselling training. Not doing almost anything creative for the whole of 2023 made me incredibly sad and brought with it a lot of inner turmoil, so my resolution for 2024 was to finally write that play that had been floating around in my brain for many years, never quite managing to get it out on paper and I am proud to say - I did it!
2024 has also been a year of a lot of reflection and, to be honest, an ongoing early mid-life crisis, as it was also the last year of my 20s. All that thinking led to a decision to do what I have both wanted and dreaded for many, many years - to take a show to the Edinburgh Fringe for a whole month. Both exhilarating and frightening, wonderful and insane, but a fitting way to celebrate my 30s by reaching that milestone in any theatre creative's life - THE EDINBURGH FRINGE!
This is where you come in! The Edinburgh Fringe has become increasingly, insanely expensive in the last decade, so I need your support to be able to go to it. I am asking for your help as a gift for my 30th year on Earth. Having to worry less about the financial impact taking a show to the Fringe Festival will have on me is the best gift I could ever receive. No donation is too small and they are all greatly appreciated!
What is Goodness Me? A dramedy about the experience of being a millennial. Celeste is a woman in her early 30s whose life has fallen apart and doesn't know what to do with herself - life really doesn't come with an instruction manual, ey?! Lulu is the Furby her ex gifted her. Still, maybe there's more to both of them than meets the eye. Celeste needs to face her problems and turn her life around before it unravels the world itself.
