Monsieur Prouix. He is a lyrical conquistador, a fastidious and calculating artisan with a deep love and desire for the finest things in life, mixing business with pleasure in acquiring and manipulating beautiful things and enjoying money and other vices; sarcastic, fashionista, and professional dandy.
When I was a toddler my mother used to take me to see street theatre in Brighton and I used to watch Stomp and other such acts in there early days performing on the streets of Brighton. The company that most inspired me was Ziz Ziz Kaboom a double act that mixed clowning with circus dance and story telling. Mim who was ‘Mimmosa’ is now an friend of mine and still dancing her daughter also a friend is a burlesque circus performer and they together with Voodoo Vaudeville became my first experience of performing in alternative theatre.
Delicious, scandalous and totally fascinating…
