During early 2022 I co-wrote the musical George, with Tom Adams. George: The Musical is a piece of headphone theatre and was commissioned by Camden People’s Theatre:

“George is a 30 minute audio experience with songs. It is about about guide dogs and their relationship with their companions.

‘Who guides the guide dog?’

Inspired by Tom’s memories as a young boy, witnessing his Uncle who is blind and the amazing teamwork between man and dog, George tells the story of a guide dog on the brink of retirement.

Recorded live with an audience of two in the Stevenage living room of Siobhan Meade, who is registered blind, with her guide dog, Marty, curled up at her feet and filling Siobhan’s lounge with performers, musical instruments and harmonies, it uses songs and binaural recording to make you feel as if you are in the room.

If you listen carefully, you can hear the occasional snuffling of Marty and now and again the odd bit of snoring.”

George was performed by Tom, me, musician Claire Orme and Siobahn Meade
