New Photos of Gillian Bush-Bailey

"Taken during a performance/paper I give on the work of the
first one-woman show (a follow up to my latest book
Performing Herself: autobiography and Fanny Kelly's Dramatic
Recollections, Manchester University Press, 2011) in which I
use Kelly's own memories of her child-acting days and
interweave them with my own - including showing clips (and
even dancing alongside my 15 year old self with Robbie the
Robot).
This has turned out to be a really interesting turn in my
work with a surprising response from academic colleagues
both here and in Vancouver (where i performed in august)
some of whom delightedly, thank goodness, loved the show but
even those who don't know it - enjoy the performance."
