Filming antics at the hotel
We spent this afternoon filming the (faked) CCTV footage that appears as part of Black Tonic.

As you can see, its a glamorous job. The photo above shows our film maker Chris Keenan setting up his tripod in the bath, and trying to avoid getting dripped on by the shower.
The team were good sports as ever, and our performer Magda (dressed in the Radisson’s housekeeping uniform) already had the head of housekeeping fooled and thinking she’s a new member of his staff.
Avon Called at Pilot on March 12th
We trialled a very new idea that might one day become a real show at Pilot on 12th March. The snippet we performed was entitled Avon Calling, and involved the performer Lou Platt taking on several personas: the Avon Lady, her mother & herself. As well as this, she built ‘the great wall of Avon’ – picture below. If you saw it and have any feedback for us drop us a line at info@theotherwayworks.co.uk , thanks.
