A new play about the final hours of the late great fashion icon Isabella Blow, entitled Blow Me, is now playing at Mad Cat Theatre Company in Miami, with possible shows in New York and Edinburgh later this year. Written by Jessica Farr and directed by the company’s founder, Paul Tei, the play stars actress Erin Joy Schmidt as Isabella, and examines the final moments of the British fashion editor’s life, with particular focus on the eve of her seventh and final suicide attempt. Blow, you may recall, killed herself by drinking weed killer (a particularly painful and time consuming way to go). And while the whole thing seems slightly ghoulish, I’d definitely go see it. Maybe by the time the production hits New York, they can spring for some better hats. Issy is spinning in her grave over those damn synthetic feathers, I’m sure. (via Daily Mail)
