NIX WOOD
puppeteer & performer
ALICE for AUBADE by CUBE THEATRE
Toured Spring 2013
Blending film and theatre, knife-sharp dialogue and dance, unflinching realism and fantasy, cube theatre presents AUBADE (OH BAD!). A satire, a psychodrama, a twisted love-story. Not for the squeamish or the easily offended.
A young female trainee teacher finds herself being mentored by a single, middle-aged man in a failing school. Beset by shattered illusions and impending failure she burrows underneath her mentor's placid exterior, little realising that she is about to unleash something hidden- his past and her predicament combusting with horrifying consequences.
"Stand out performances...that this final scenes packs such a punch is testament to Wood's skill" -Belinda Dillon, Exeunt.
"Both performers bring Jon Welch's writing to life with intelligence, subtlety and emotional honesty" - Remotegoat.
"A must-see show....a masterpice" -Expose
