REMIX reached an almighty climax at the live event on Saturday night and for me, it was the end of a project unlike any other. From meeting Natalie Ibu over a glass of Christmas cheer to speed dating, from the finest displays of millinery to complex karaoke negotiations, REMIX has had it all. This was the first project I have ever worked on where I played no part in the creative side of things, which was not altogether an unpleasant experience. When I’m producing I often like to pretend I am on the apprentice and REMIX certainly gave me this opportunity. The aim of the game was to do as much as possible with the smallest overheads, and my hat well and truly comes off to Natalie and Lisa. Saturday night was a classy affair, and in my opinion encapsulated and honoured the mission statement. I wanted to be part of REMIX because I admired the ambition and scale of what Natalie was proposing. I wanted to meet these emerging practitioners and see if they rose to the challenge. To put myself in a new situation, working for someone else’s vision and forge new working relationships that would be beneficial to all concerned. To see a piece of theatre created by people otherwise unfamiliar with it. This was why I did it, and my expectations were totally exceeded.
