NoLogoProductions - Bringing new writing to new audiences since 2010
NoLogoProductions have been producing new writing at Fringe festivals and theatres across the UK from 2010. Our work has ranged from political drama to tales of lost love, from tragedy to comedy, and from present day Britain to 1950s America. Uniting it all has been a commitment to creating characters and telling stories that people can care about and empathise with.
We know that theatre can't change the world, but hopefully it can help us understand it, and each other, just that little bit better.
Other recent productions have included An(other) Inspector Calls and Make-up. Our next production is a tenth year anniversary revival of our 2014 Edinburgh Fringe hit Casual Encounters. Tickets are on sale now here A live recording of Make-up at Eden Court, Inverness is available here

What reviewers say about Make-up
'The script by Andy Moseley, who also directed, is gripping and intense and Moj Taylor gives us a powerful set of mental images through his quietly angry performance. Layer upon layer is warmly/brutally exposed and we learn and appreciate more and more what has become a muddled life. We come out challenged, disturbed, not quite angry: it’s a sharply-observed piece which raises questions, answers some, and raises more.' Buxton Fringe Review
'A noble and thought-provoking piece, starring an excellent Moj Taylor as Chris and his troubled drag persona, Lady Christina. Moseley and Taylor capture well the tortures and fears of Chris/Christina as she emerges from a performance, offering some poignant dressing-room reflections. A skilled and successful drama, it nudges you to new insight and understanding.' The Wee Review
'The writing and performance throughout Make-Up are impressive, working together to create an absolutely real character, with all the messy complexities, contradictions and – yes – flaws that entails. But the thing that really lifts Make-Up to the next level for me is the humanity of it all. It’s a confident piece of writing and direction, brought to life by a truly compelling performance from Taylor.' North Manchester FM
'Make Up is a thoughtful examination of the lasting effect of prejudice featuring a strong and empathetic performance. Taylor makes subtle distinctions between the slightly catty Lady Christina and the more laid-back Christopher. Christopher recalling seeing his father while in his Lady Christina persona is a particularly powerful sequence which makes clear he is willing to try and reconcile but has recognised this is unlikely. British Theatre Guide
'A disarmingly truthful and humorous piece, adroitly constructed and beautifully performed. Moj Taylor is skilled at both humour and pathos, prickly yet inviting, welcoming the audience into his world yet always keeping a distance. A tiny acting space is used very well by Taylor and Moseley, leading to an intimacy that is never oppressive' All Edinburgh Theatre
'A coruscating 50 minutes. Moj Taylor creates a highly interesting if not thoroughly likeable performer, who seems to cover a not entirely successful career with bitterness and gall. A totally believable character, who has a lot to say about Queer identity, personality, individualism and the freedom to be who you are. Well worth a visit. Scene Magazine
