“Natalie has a wonderful ability to find both stillness and mischief in the smallest of
moments. Her warm stage presence builds instant trust with an audience, who are
happy to join her on her weird and wonderful journey.”
Rio Matchett, Furnace Producer, Leeds Playhouse

A show about the pain and beauty of growing older, connecting and unravelling, holding on and letting go. This new solo performance uses comedy, storytelling and movement to celebrate being human in all its banality, sprinkled with joy and
ridiculousness. A visual and physical collage performed by a clown delving into the space inside us left behind by time. It’s about a person trying to unwrap the new version of themselves in a world they don't recognise and a life they seem
uncomfortably in charge of. It’s about what comes next..

“Natalie is a seriously skilled performer. I've reviewed her work over a number of
years and worked with her as a fellow creative. When I see her name on a cast list,
it's with joyful anticipation because I know I will be in the hands of a performer who
understands in her bones how to communicate. Her clowning is an extraordinary
strength, but the reason she is so funny to watch is because she bears herself
entirely. Honest, raw and emotionally open on the stage; it makes for a performer
who is utterly compelling.”
Nick Ahad, Writer and Broadcaster
