THE OPPOSITE OF WAITING
LISA WELLS TURNER

World Premiere

Locked in her room and unable to deal with the world outside, Rebecca dreams of a life of glamour and adventure. But when she tries to mould herself into the perfect being, she begins to wonder what she's actually looking for.

Breaking down the walls between performing art forms, The Opposite of Waiting creates a new performance style. Merging new writing, movement and song it explores who we are and who we feel we ought to be.

British Theatre Guide review of Iphigenia - Edinburgh Fringe 2006

Company History
Lisa Wells Turner's is a classically trained singer with a background in dance and movement. This piece represents the culmination of several years of work into the way these two disciplines can work together.

Her first work was a 40 minute 'mono-opera' which was performed at the Edinburgh Fringe 2006. Iphigenia used music from the Gluck opera Iphigenie en Tauride and Martha Graham inspired choreography. Other credits include: choir master/1st soprano for new music composed for Iris Theatre's production of T S Eliott's Murder in the Cathedral and a recital at St Botolph's, London. She has also performed with City Opera and Imperial Opera and is a past participant on 'The Knack' (ENO's course for young singers). She studies with Howard Milner.
