Bob's Blog - DANIEL BYE -THE PRICE OF EVERYTHING - Northern Stage at St Peter's

I didn't get to Warwick, where an extract of this work in progress was shown. Daniel is a very engaging performer,and this is a Dave Gormanesque public lecture about price and value, particularly the value of the arts.  The interesting thing about his presentation is that he de-constructs it as he goes along. Having built up a plausible story in the first half about selling air-guitar on e-bay to fund the show, he then undermines it before launching on another more obvious fable in the second half.  Good use of powerpoint and fesh milk !
I'm not sure how you'd sell it to a typical village hall audience but we might try it in the arts centre.
