Screwface- Rikki Beadle-Blair
Written and Directed by Rikki Beadle Blair, I Assistant Directed this incredible production about 10 male youth offenders in a high-security wing going through an hour-long drama workshop.
‘Everyone’s inside for murder, but who is guilty? And what is innocence?’
It was hugely beneficial not only to further hone my directorial style alongside a hugely respected and knowledgeable director, but also to get a chance to stage a play at the Bush Theatre. The audience were on three sides, a form I had never previously worked with before, and so it was challenging to adapt to this style.
However, with Rikki’s guidance and facilitation, I soon began gaining confidence with the form and became adept at experimenting with the style. Working alongside Rikki, who is such an accommodating and lovely director, massively increased my confidence and abilities with directing. The training I receive from him has also improved my time management, articulation and has given me invaluable experience working alongside a professional director and in a professional theatre.
