Monitor

Tonight I will be taking part in a performance at Soho House called Monitor orchestrated by Olivia Plender.

Monitor was the first arts and culture documentary series broadcast on the BBC. The piece takes the form of a reconstruction of an instalment from 1960 called Private View about young artists living in London and the dialogue comes directly from a transcript of the episode.

I'm playing the artist James Howie who died earlier this year.

The piece has been performed before and here's what Olivia said about it last time around.
