We recently completed the publicity for Third Angel's new production, Words & Pictures.
Alex took the photographs of empty benches looking at views decided by other people. We took the benches, changed the views and divided them by three.
"There comes a time in your life by which point you should have written a book. If you were ever really going to. Well, Third Angel are at that time, but they just haven't got round to it; they've been busy. Really busy. There's a book's worth of stuff there, but, well, there's been too much else to do. But they do like the idea of a book tour. Touring, they've done a lot of that. So they're cutting straight to that bit: The Book Tour. Welcome.
From picking up discarded texts and a reading in the dark to words that accompany pictures and the theatrical re-imagining of popular song this is a 'book reading' for a book that hasn't been written yet, let alone published.
Not available in any book shops, anywhere.
Words & Pictures is commissioned by the Off The Shelf Festival of Writing and Reading and Leeds Met Gallery and Studio Theatre.
This is a book tour for a book that hasn't been written. Alex and Rachel present the stories of their lives, discarded texts, readings in the dark and theatrical re-imaginings of popular song. Amongst other things."
