Episode 8 :: Rosana Cade and Ivor MacAskill :: MOOT MOOT Episode 1 :: Sh!t Theatre

    • Arts

Rosana Cade and Ivor MacAskill joined me in April 2019 to discuss their collaboratively devised show MOOT MOOT, which appears in the 2019 Showcases of Made in Scotland and the British Council at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. In the absurd parallel universe of MOOT MOOT, Cade and MacAskill play doppelganger radio talk show hosts Barry and Barry, struggling to communicate meaningfully while nevertheless sustaining humour, playfulness, fondness, and the suggestions of queer love. We talk about what motivated the work, its relationship to an era of opinions, and its engagement with techniques of collaboration, physical theatre, costuming, improvisation, and characterization.
