Performing a high quality one person play requires concentration on a level we almost never engage in in 2023.

When was the last time you had to concentrate with all your being for 60 minutes+ without a single second of zoning out, checking your phone or wondering what’s for dinner?

You probably can’t think of a time you actually had to do this, because why would you?! Even doing high stakes tasks such as driving allow the mind to wander and we’ll often zone out at work. Even if we’re in a traditional play, there’s many moments of downtime, while others take centre stage.

So how do we achieve this acute level of focus in a solo play?

In short…. Practicality!

We don’t go on stage hoping to be good or crossing our fingers people will enjoy it. There’s no time for that. Instead, we essentially create a very specific, very practical ‘to do list’ to get through in a very limited time.

The performer’s mind thrives on the specificity of these tasks that all link seamlessly together in a seemingly effortless manner.

As a by product, we force the audience to come with us on an intense journey.

In summary, with a world class level of preparation, we achieve a state of absolute commitment rarely witnessed by people. The results compound to create a very special experience for all.

I can’t wait to teach more of you how to execute this approach!

has been a classic entrepreneur story. Having figured out how to monetise the exact theatre work I want to do at will, I’m now extremely passionate about helping others do the same. And what better way then to open a building dedicated to that cause (along with showcasing the results). Hope you’ll join me🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🫡 - (founder)

Nothing is incidental in a one person play. Nothing random. Nothing executed without a plethora of reasoning behind it.

Even moments of ‘chaos’ are orchestrated within a strategically structured framework.

We build this framework from the ground up so that we have infinite freedom within it.

We have one pursuit - the truth. The truth never gets sacrificed for a laugh nor a draw of breath, nor a tear or a sigh.

The truth is the safe zone. Where ego and humility collide to create magic.

That’s where we exist on stage. On our own.

Being alone on stage is truly all or nothing. If you haven’t put in the insane amount of work, the empty space will crush you.

But if you’ve put the time in and have the tools, techniques and experience, the empty space becomes an infinite canvas of possibility. Let us teach you how to use this canvas to the maximum of your potential 🧑‍🎨

Removing the literal, unleashes the power of the imagination in an empty space.

And guess what, it’s also cheaper! Which means a better show at a lower cost to you the performer.

At SOLO, we make the work the priority. No bells and whistles, just you knocking it out the park and making a load of profit in the process.

Forget everything you know about how theatre should work. We’re about to reinvent it. Masterclass information coming soon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🫡
