An Evening with Tess and Will!

This is an archive page for a past Theatre 118 production. Venue and access information below may refer to our former building at 118 Osborne Street.
Will Ford Turner: Let's Connect
Despite being a competent-to-adept practitioner of poetry, standup and storytelling, to name just a fraction of the artforms at his disposal, Will Ford Turner has a habit of alienating people. Will thirty minutes of mostly comic verse before an initially indifferent Glasgow public help him find the connection he craves? Why wouldn't it?
Tess Outdoors: Back in Stile
Far from her noughties glory days spent browsing Debenhams with Gok Wan and dating Barney from Prank Patrol, once-beloved nature presenter Tess Outdoors has been disgraced from the public eye. Desperate, alone, and turfed out by David Attenborough, Tess must connect with her inner nature to find out why she cared so much about the outdoors in the first place. Sometimes-educational, always silly - Tess is back and she means nature!

Press
"Will has a very engaging presence, which comes across very well on stage. His poetry is rhyming performance poetry, which has many pop cultural references and some local references which hit particularly well. His presence on stage takes us through the comic interludes of his life, with particular favourites being Public Schoolboys love World Music and the haiku."
"An evening of good culture, concentration and connection"
