Performer Name: Daniel Morden
Show Name: A Figure of Speech
Show Description
A FIGURE OF SPEECH An angel inhabits a human body... A man is mistakenly given the heart of a dog.... A child can hear the plants speak... Our bodies are usually wonderful, often ridiculous, and occasionally horrific. In these funny and macabre stories Daniel explores this bag of bones we inhabit, in all its absurd, bizarre, visceral splendour. Not for the squeamish!
Self contained
I prefer to be on the same level as the audience. And the show works better if the audience are in rows
Yes, posters and handbills
