A Week of Living as a Catholic: Pure and Simple
”Our Father, who art in Heaven, please let me complete this week of prayer and no sin or vice relatively unscathed.” (Ironically, this is technically blasphemy, so I’ve already lost brownie points)
About 6 months ago, i read a book that changed me. Not like revolutionising my world, or making me so inspired I simply MUST… [click the title to continue reading]
Can you identify?
“Who am I?” is a question that we ask ourselves at various points in our lives and careers. The constant want to be understood is usually root of this question as we feel it is important that we understand ourselves so others can understand us.
Is identity, who we feel we are, or is it how… [click the title to continue reading]
Photograph this.
You may all think that our lives revolve around our beloved Accidental Festival and in some ways at the moment its true, so I thought id take the time to show you some of the other work we do.

‘Oh I really do like to be beside the seaside’
Over the last two months, I have been following and watching Lone Twin’s rehearsals of their new piece, The Festival, as an intern in the run up to its premiere at The Barbican in March. It has been a great few weeks for me and I have learned a great deal.

Spin the wheel…of Chat Roulette.
Some are calling it “the most innovative thing on the web since myspace”. What do you think?

What with the six nations hotting up at the moment and the champions league and winter Olympics in Vancouver about to kick off the world of sport seems more pronounced than ever. It sprawls across the pages… [click the title to continue reading]
Tales from a circus freak.
At the start of our journey in to the Accidental Festival 2010 when we were picking our roles I knew that there was only one for me. Circus is something which has fascinated me ever since I was a small child. Initially revelling in my younger sister’s fear of clowns, and realising that simply by… [click the title to continue reading]

A vast number of BATP graduates have gone on to have outstandingly successful careers, the students have worked with some of the most important names in… [click the title to continue reading]
What’s the point in going to see a show in another language?
Hello World. I hope you’re enjoying the website and are as excited as I am about the Accidental Festival 2010. As the International Coordinator for this year’s festival I felt compelled to write my first blog about international performance – funny that.
At first I thought I could write a well considered micro essay on my… [click the title to continue reading]
It’s Showtime!
You know that feeling when you have an essay looming and you’re panicking to get it done? Or the feeling you get when you’ve been told the job is yours? Feels a bit manic, doesn’t it? Well, the same feeling is felt just before you go on stage. True, some people remain calm in the… [click the title to continue reading]
