Mirror Me was developed with the support of Arts Council England, Greenwich Theatre and The Broadway, Barking. Following previews it was further developed to take account of feedback from parents and children meaning it is tailor-made for young audiences. It was shown at the Edinburgh Fringe 2015 where it had an extremely successful run playing to sell-out and packed houses and garnering huge enthusiasm from its audiences and a 5* review.
After co-writing 'Mirror Me' a how targeted at 3-8 year olds. We successfully created and named the Theatre Company 'Hello Theatre'. With a fully funded project thanks to to arts council and additional fundraising and sponsorship the show 'Mirror Me' headed to Edinburgh Festival 2015 and performed at The Pleasance Green. A huge hit with families,we gained lots of publicity and even made it on to BBC Breakfast as an example of a funded show. And we are happy to say we didn't loose money instead we are able to put money towards supporting the next project. However this project wasn't about the money.It is a delicate, simple play that has a good story at the heart of it that touched the heart of our audiences.
Finding the right team was essentially this meant tapping into our network of graphic designers and illustrators to help create our marketing material. Our marketing material included our Hello Theatre logo, illustrated stickers and flyers, promotion codes and interviews and publicity with organisations such as Mumsnet.
