Dominic Coleman (Leslie's Little Productions)

Having spent a couple of years avoiding going to Dominic's shows, I finally attended last years 'Truth and Lies...' (an artist's urban odyssey) and wished I had attended the previous ones. Hence when this years brochure came out he was one of the first shows to be penciled in.

Millennium Prayer, as always written by this exceptionally talented artist, and I use the word intentionally as Coleman literally uses his words to paint the characters he has created.

With the simplest of sets he leads us through this urban nightmare all told through the eyes and words of a dancing poet alien. We meet Denny, his brother Mikey, girlfriend Michelle estranged father Mike and each has a story which is personalized through the 'dancing poet,'

Coleman is a born performer and deserves far more recognition than he has already got not to mention a better venue and time slot. Still, take the opportunity to catch him while you can.
