Surprise! I was the secret piano player for Alice at her new live show "Earth To Alice" in The Black Box and The Accidental Theatre, Belfast.
Alice McCullough’s award-winning performances have captivated audiences as she plays with the boundaries between spoken word, comedy, storytelling and theatre. Her unique way with words has won her a presence on local and international radio with poems commissioned for both TV (BBC The Arts Show, BBC Love In A Day) and radio (BBC Talkback, BBC Arts Extra and U105). Alice has supported talents in comedy, music and poetry including Katherine Ryan, Duke Special, Lemn Sissay, Tony Walsh and Hollie McNish.
But despite her successes, Alice struggles. In this new adaptation of her critically acclaimed show, after a 2-year break from performing that included two admissions to a mental health ward, Alice is more determined than ever to tackle the stigma of mental illness head-on and take to the stage once more. Expect laughter, some tears and a life-affirming kick in the balls in this re-emergence of a talent not to be missed.
