Sex Idiot (FRINGEWORLD 2015)

According to the pamphlet: “Bryony Kimmings is a Sex Idiot. Following her very first STI test, Bryony discovered she had a common sexual disease. Not one for looking back, she was faced with the arduous task of retracing her sexual footsteps to see where she had contracted her little problem.”

The Bookbinder (FRINGEWORLD 2015)

This charming and original work was first performed intimately to an audience of just fifteen in the back room of a second-hand bookshop. After taking New Zealand by storm the team at Trick of the Light went on to win Best Theatre, Best in the Fringe, and the Tiki Tour Ready Award at the NZ Fringe awards. It is a truly intimate and romantic work that will delight old and young alike.

Too Much Light is designed to never … Read more
