Dave Bain (Writer / Director)

Dave has been writing, directing and performing for over twenty years.  He also works as a psychotherapist in private practice.

Reflecting on how his creative process has evolved, Bain said, "For this show, we’ve integrated songs and music into the narrative more tightly.  In our first show (GAME OVER, 2017), there was a sixteen minute gap between two of the songs.  Looking back on that now - it seems insane!"

Julia Zlotnick (Lead Choreographer)

Julia Zlotnick is a London based choreographer, director and writer. Julia is a graduate of Northern School of Contemporary Dance.

Reflecting on her approach to working on the show, Zlotnick said, “I like to try out different variations with the cast. I often give them a chance to be involved in developing some material by responding to small creative tasks I set. After a few hours of workshopping with the cast I film the choreography. Later, I watch the material and reflect on what is needed next.”
