Writer Elliott Bennett @aka.elliott brought "Moscow" to the Liverpool Scratch Network in April. Elliott is a great example of a writer always working, trying new things and bringing alternative pieces to the event to try out, always with a different idea and theme 👏 This piece was directed by George Cubbin @mr.cubs2816 and performed by Lisa Arnold, JP Smith @jpsmudge and Tom Ashcroft. This piece was set in a dreamscape, in Moscow's Fractured Avante Garde. . . . #newwriting #liverpoolscratchnetwork #Liverpoolart #everymantheatre #scratchnight
