7. If you could put on (or be in) any show/band in the world, which one would it be?
When I was in Mali two years ago I hung out in Bamako for a few days hunting out psychedelic guitar bands. I found one called Beperi. They blew my mind. I chatted to the drummer after their show during a powercut, and by the end of it he pretty much invited me to join the band. I always think about that band… when this making theatre malarky runs out of juice, i know i have another great option.
8. Biggest accolade/compliment you’ve received about your show?
“I have no idea what just happened – but i loved it. Can i stroke you?”
9. Why would someone not come to see your show?
I guess if they get freaked out when things don’t go according to plan. Or if they are scared of grapes.

Dr. Brown Brown Brown Brown Brown, Swamp Juice, Squidboy, and The Porcelain Punch Traveling Medicine Show
