It's Fringe Season! The most stressful of all the seasons, including mating season. It's that time of the year where you see a shit load of shows- some good, some terrible, some great, some just...aye alright- and, if you are performing, where you lose your fucking mind. So what's Fonmanu Creative up to this fringe? … Continue reading Edinburgh Fringe 2017

You know how usually I'm heavy, heavy stressed and over analysing and crying and screaming and stressing and drinking and shagging and stressing?

Hence, the mash-up name cry-max. I never encountered a partner who cry-maxed. As a woman who … Continue reading Cry-maxing
It all began tonight So tonight is preview night. I'm excited. I've been doing all the nervous pooing. Like, all the nervous pooing. I'm calming myself down by making props for the show. Director Mitch wanted a few notes from Jenni to David, wee romantic ones to dot about on the set. Here's what I … Continue reading Tonight, tonight

So, after yesterday's frustrating rehearsals leaving me wanting to cry and have a bath and drink lots of wine and cry some more, today's was absolutely amazing. I'm so pumped up! Let's go team, let's go! I need to remember that I love acting, and I need to enjoy these rehearsals and not get myself pure stressed … Continue reading WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!
Today was a frustrating day at rehearsals. I don't know what it was, but I just wasn't getting it.

Do it … Continue reading Frustration
