Smack That by Rhiannon Faith
Shameless and subversive dance theatre about human resilience, survival and how we care for one another.
Developed with Barbican as part of Open Lab.
Islands by Caroline Horton
An ink black comedy about tax havens, enormous greed, and the few who have it all. Islands spits in the face of polite political debate. Incandescent with rage, it hurls out images of the putrid end-times of ultimate freedom and the rotten, violent underbelly of offshore finance.
I TALK TO THE CLOUDS AND THEY CRY WITH ME
This is a beautifully moving and honest dance theatre show about loneliness, forgiveness and friendship. Set within a spectacular and dramatic cloud structure, and based on a true story, two performers tell one man’s struggle through illness and suffering, and his desire to live in the sky.
