Here we go...

Well here we go... I have decided to keep a blog of my visit to Rio de Janeiro.
Back in March, Luisa Massarani contacted me from the Museu da Vida in Rio, to see if they could perform a play I had written about the inspirational victorian scientist, Alfred Russel Wallace, as part of their exhibition on bio-diversity.
How cool is that, so yeah, of course!
So our play is being performed by an actor in Brazil, and we, me and Ioan Hefin the original actor, will be going out to Rio on Saturday 17th to meet up with team at Museu da Vida to discuss ways of sharing our work, so that we can integrate effectively with young people through theatre.
How cool is this for a small company from Neath in Wales to travel out to South America...in the footsteps of Wallace.
