Riot of the Freelance Mind does The Hinterland is a tragi-comic exploration of living and juggling creative lives alongside everyday ‘real life’ pressures. 

We explore what it means to be a performer/actor/creative/writer in today’s world. How do we live? How do we survive between jobs?  We look at the tensions of auditioning, interviews, workshops and also at competitiveness, age, self-esteem and how we find our ‘voice’. 

In a series of overlapping and interlinking monologues we deconstruct our pasts, present and future to define or re-define who we are. All this is sprinkled with an eclectic mix of dialogue, poetry, music, projections and voice over, combined with a bit of the quirky, the honest and the irreverent.
