'Myrninerest: The Outside/Inside Life of Madge Gill'

Directed by Dario Knight
Produced by Unbound

A new production of James Kenworth’s acclaimed play about outsider artist Madge Gill.

Madge Gill (1882-1961) was one of the foremost British Outsider artists. She felt an instinctive compulsion to create, resulting in an outpouring that flowed effortlessly and spontaneously from an altered state of consciousness. Working under the control of Myrninerest, her spirit guide, Madge Gill’s art remains an enigma.

She was born in the East End of London, and lived in Plashet Grove, Upton Park. After her death, her only surviving son Laurie gathered hundreds of pieces of Madge’s work which were stored around the house, stuffed into drawers and cupboards and under the bed. He donated most of the works to East Ham Council and are now owned by Newham Council.

This special production is presented by QPAC’s in-house storytelling company, Unbound, by kind arrangement with the Newham Plays.
