I’m the main man. Nobody tells me what to do.
My name’s Marie. One day I’ll be a ghost.
I hear voices. What do the voices say?
I’m Lisa - a woman in financial difficulties.
Are we involved with each other or merely passers-by?

Do I Mean Anything To You Or Am I Just Passing By? is a sequence of one-person performances devised with and personalised for specific performers. The relationship between performers (and performances) is deliberately blurred and open to different interpretations. Gradually introducing individuals and events into the most elemental setting, one solo leads to - and intersects with - another.

Writer/Director Gerard McInulty and his company 12 Stars make new theatre that seeks the crossing point between dramatic and musical structures.

Do I Mean Anything To You Or Am I Just Passing By? features original music by seminal Glasgow group The Pastels, and Stephen McRobbie and Katrina Mitchell from The Pastels will be on hand to add some live sound.

DIRECTOR Gerard McInulty
MUSIC The Pastels

There’s something haunting about the performers’ casual, almost throwaway lack of contrivance, as, egged on by the music’s heartbreaking beauty, their rituals work their way towards some kind of higher ground. (THE HERALD ON TREATISE ON THE STEPPENWOLF)
