If You're Feeling Sinister
Edinburgh Festival Fringe
Sound Designer
He was exhausted by life. She was tired of waiting for it to begin. Now Boss and Kid are on the run. A reckless artist waiting to be found and an academic looking to lose himself could pull off Glasgow’s greatest heist if they can keep their hands off one another and on the steering wheel. This is a story about dreaming, shame and the fear of being left behind. A new adaptation of Belle and Sebastian’s iconic album.

Reviews
"If You’re Feeling Sinister is a funny, touching tale, sitting confidently between buddy comedy and romantic tragedy and proving a memorable festival afternoon"
- The Skinny ****
"At times it really feels as if the lyrics were created for this play, and not taken from an album made over twenty years ago"
