A Place at the Table, a piece of theatre based on events in Burundi and directed and designed by Paul for Daedalus Theatre Company was shown at Camden People's Theatre in April 2009, and will tour in 2011. Amongst the good reviews, Time Out called it “a brilliant visual platform... a powerful testament to the act of bearing witness”? Paul, along with company co-director Katharine Williams, is currently involved in setting the Daedalus on an offical footing as a company.
Following the seminar he led in 2007, and the creation of Rang, a play without actors, both at NCA, Pakistan, Paul is returning in July/August 2010 to work on a production of Dario Fo's Can't Pay, Won't Pay, directed by head of NCA's Department of Theatre Claire Pamment and adapted by the playwright and poet Sarmad Sehbai.
His next UK project is The Rememberers for Apples and SNakes – a live hiphop graphic novel for audiences aged 12+, touring Autumn 2010.
Every Brilliant Thing, an installation co-created with Simon Daw in response to Duncan Macmillan’s play Sleeve Notes, was commissioned for Nabokov Arts Club at The Village Underground, Shoreditch, London, 2008, then shown again at Latitude Festival, 2009
