About me:
We are Rowan Michael Davie and Emma Schofield. Two artists with big dreams. For us, theatre that challenges and asks the audience to engage in something bigger than everyone in the room can be one of the most profound gifts you can ever receive. Live exchange of energies, hearts, ideas and passions have broken through our own barriers, and we are here to create this experience for you, the audience. If you'll have us. ;)

thankyou for 'being the change you want to see in the world' :)
Hey guys. Just thought I'd drop you a line from NY and say hi and good luck for your already started adventures in Edinburgh. Boags has been kicking my ass so I haven't had much time to jump online. But Noa and I have been thinking of you guys and can't freakin wait to see you both again. SITI is wicked. Can't wait for you both to come and do it. Em, hope six women has been going well. Ro, you're not six nor a woman but I hope its rocking out for you too... Cherio Kids. See you soon!!
i am so sorry this is so brief, i promise to write you both an email soon.
i just wanted to tell you that when i read your emails about your travels, my heart fills to the brim with a delightful cocktail or pure joy and of course a dash of jelousy. i am so proud of you both. i wish you all the best in Edinburgh and i wish i was there with you all to see great theatre and music and get completely hammered at the pub.
i will never find housemates as wonderful as the two of you (although i love carly dearly). and i miss you more than you know.
Emma & Rowan! You found me, yay!!! The performance stills look awesome - only sorry I can't fly to Europe to see the show :( Any plans to re-stage in Oz?
Hey there, Sorry to spam... We're releasing our brand new EP, "Meet Horace and Clyde" at end of June and we're coming to a town near you... Check out the dates below... Love The Rocketsmiths.
thanks for your kids words man! Yeah unfortunately it seems that our paths never crossed enough to have a proper conversation about cool stuff like existentialism or contemp. performance theory!! I am glad my tunes got you going though. That is good to hear.
Your company sounds fantastic man! And your doing some amazing things so
power to ya. I am kicking along back in Bris - working for Imaginary Theatre making performances for kids and writing grants. Also freelancing sound design a bit- would love to be doing more though.
I also got a job at the Judy doing FOH - it's a dream.
eeek, i can´t believe you guys are about to spread your wings, to return goodness knows when! safe journey and good air currents on your way over, can´t wait to see you guys in edinburgh.
Thanks for sharing some of your art with us last week. Your pictures were hauntingly beautiful and I am intrigued your reconnection concept. Congrats on the Norway opportunity and good luck at Fringe! May be I'll be seeing you in Edinburgh in August!
Thanks for being our friend! Congratulations on getting to do creative development in Norway, and glad VC could help you towards that with Capillaries last year! Keep in touch!
