REVIEW EXTRACTS
‘One of the UK’s most innovative and exciting theatre companies.’ Independent on Sunday

‘Part amused, part amazed, one wanders through the hall, looks, marvels and understands.’ Neue Zuericher Zeitung (Of All The People In All The World)

‘Stan’s Cafe work the audience’s power of deduction like virtuosos… It is an understatement to say that The Cleansing of Constance Brown is a great performance.’ Der Standard (The Cleansing of Constance Brown)

CURRENT PRODUCTIONS
Home of the Wriggler This show, set in an age where petrol has run out, reflects how, in a globalised world, our lives are woven together. All power for the show is generated by its cast. (60 mins, with no interval, 4 on stage, 5 on the road.)

Of All The People In All The World This performance installation uses grains of rice to bring human statistics to vivid life and tell powerful stories of the world in which we live. (Duration variable, minimum of 4 on the road.)

The Cleansing of Constance Brown This spectacular piece of visual theatre is performed on a stage 2m wide and 14m deep. It boldly explores themes of power and cleansing through its elusive female protagonist. (70 mins, no interval, 7 on stage, 11 on the road.)

Be Proud of Me This international thriller uses slide projections to glide across Europe. Its evocative text, constructed from the simple language of tourist phrase books, reveals the hallucinogenic world of an unlikely assassin. (60 mins, no interval, 2 on stage, 5 on the road.)

It’s Your Film An act of Victorian illusion, a fairground ride, a peep show, a piece of live cinema; lasting 240 seconds and performed live for an audience of one. (4 mins per performance, 6 hours per day maximum, 4 on the road.)

The Black Maze A cross between a fairground ride and a rite of passage. Its dark twisting corridors are filled with unexpected sensations, sights and sounds. A hit with audiences of all ages. Audiences can go through alone or in pairs. (5 mins, 6 hours per day maximum, 2 on the road.)

FUTURE PRODUCTIONS
Ghost Steps Site-specific installation giving instructions for a public performance.
