Rob Auton: The Eyes Open and Shut Show

Rob Auton: ‘The Eyes Open and Shut Show’

Dear potential gig goer,

Firstly I’d like to say I love doing shows in Margate and am looking forward to getting in the mix for this one. This is a comedy/theatre/spoken word show about eyes when they are open and eyes when they are shut. With this show I wanted to explore what I could do to myself and others with language when eyes are open and when they are shut. After writing ten shows on specific themes including the colour yellow in ‘The Yellow Show’, the sky in ‘The Sky Show’ and myself in ‘The Rob Auton Show’ I wanted to think about what makes me open my eyes and what makes me shut my eyes. I did about 40 work in progresses of it and then did it at the Edinburgh Festival for the month. It would be great to see you if you’re about?

All the best,

Rob
