Sallyann Fellowes: SALIEN

The poster for Sallyann Fellowes: SALIEN

The logo was crafted from twisted kitchen tin foil. One day, Sallyann played around with it and later decided she didn't want her face on the poster. Instead, she drew some eyes, put a plastic colander on her head, and stuck her tongue through a piece of scribbled paper. Pete Cox, her partner put the new designed look together with silver top. Roland assembled the design, naming the show "Salien" (a play on Sallyann and "alien"). The show explores the feeling of being neurodiverse and feeling like an alien, and the original poster design was inspired by the famous film but ended up being too scary. The current poster aligns better with the show's fun and humorous nature. It's a fantastic debut show by Sallyann, filled with lots of laughs. Impressively, she has already won awards for her comedy, including being the first woman to win Leicester Square Comedian of the Year 2024.
