Love and Information seemed like a bit of an odd title when I first heard about it but after watching the show, I think it not only describes the show perfectly, it’s a pretty good description of life too.

Of course life isn’t just about love and information but it does play a much bigger role than I realised. We go through life sharing information with other people. Sometimes they want the information, sometimes they don’t. Sometimes you tell them too little and sometimes you tell them too much. Sometimes they understand what you’re saying and sometimes they don’t. We give the information in whatever way seems like the right way and the reaction we get very often does depend on love, whether that’s how much they love us or how much they love whoever or whatever we’re talking about.

Jackal Run is based on a true story. It is absolutely terrifying to think that any of this could be real. It seems so cruel and unethical but it happened and maybe it’s something that could happen again.

ALL YOUR HOUSES (Barrel Organ/Guildhall School of Music and Drama/Silk Street Theatre)****

Available until: 30^th April

All Your Houses is the first (or at least the first we’ve watched) in a series of free events from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Judging from this performance, the standard is extremely high. Having seen some of their previous performances, I’m actually not very surprised.
