MARTIN FOREMAN

Martin Foreman is a writer/director who, after several false starts in his youth, came back to the theatre late in life.

"My first memories of the theatre are acting in school plays from the age of five, as a tree, a court jester and an incompetent magician amongst other challenging parts. I also remember yearly visits to Perth Repertory. From there two catchphrases from forgotten comedies - "deaf as post; fell off an elephant" and "with a spoooon" - entered our family's folklore.  

My most recent visit was to an EGTG production of Catch-22 in the Biscuit Factory, Edinburgh, where the director, cast and set were proof that community drama groups can offer inventive and entertaining theatre. 
​

The chair is where I spend much of the day staring at a screen. The circular motion reflects the disorientation that comes from the two productions I was involved with at the beginning of the year - Noel Coward's Hay Fever and my version of The Satyricon - coming to a sudden halt. Hay Fever will see the light of day in 2021 but I am still grappling with the problem of when and how to revive Petronius' first century satire. In the meantime I have been creating podcasts but I'd rather be on a stage than in a studio."
