Performance: Nic Chalmers - Between My Face and the Wall
Between My Face And The Wall is an immersive one-woman show, written and performed by Nic Chalmers, with design and dramaturgy by Kate Temple. Set inside a house of proliferating rooms, Between My Face And The Wall is a shape-shifting little beast of a tale: a fragile assemblage of horses, houses and horticulture.

I really enjoyed this piece - not only in the way it was written, but also in its delivery. A very natural reading. There were moments were I felt that a slip of the tongue had occurred, only to have the poem twist in my ears and follow a different path, the 'slip' deliberate, and convincing. The accompaniment helped too, complimentary, and evocative. I almost felt myself slipping into a meditative trance (though I was exhausted after our own marathon involvement). Nicely done. As I said to you (Nic) after your set, you should think about recording this, and selling CDs after your set in the future - I'd have bought one.
