Are you hungry yet? | |||||

Synopsis: | Two illegal dock workers witness a woman drowning. Afraid of involving the police, they do not save her. Guilty or innocent? A nocturnal city teams with social rejects, lost and disaffected human beings: an undertaker; a blind pole dancer; an embittered philosopher; the mother of a serial killer. Loosely connected stories from the edge of society mysteriously interweave to create a lyrical and darkly comic passion play for our times. Disturbing, poignant but ultimately hopeful, Innocence asks unanswerable questions about conscience and compassion in a disfigured world. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Rainald Goetz | |||||
Synopsis: | Jeff Koons is a wonderfully playful assemblage of language, rhythmic and hypnotic, comic and profound. It travels from the nightclub to the bedroom to the artist's studio to the street and beyond. It's full of arresting contradictions; about being in the crowd and being alone, about casual sex and enduring love and about making something simple that has a lasting meaning. Ultimately, for me, it's about making connections, how we reach one another, get through to each other, or not, whether through sex or love or art or commerce or noise or silence or whatever. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Dea Loher | |||||
Synopsis: | War meets art in this intimate parable. Lucy Ellinson performs this one woman show, the first full UK production of a work by Dea Loher. She takes the role of a painter seeking the perfect artistic image, until experiencing the horrors of war leads her to reconsider the value of any artistic activity, as well as the awkward relationship of Western preconceptions with current Eastern war zones. In the end she can only ask: what about joy? Land Without Words is a work of poetic realism, drawing on interviews with the abstract expressionist Mark Rothko, and Loher's own reflections about her experiences of Kabul. | |||||

Synopsis: | Paul Niemand is frozen in time. Too old to start again and too young to retire. An employee in a leading consulting firm, Niemand's inability to operate 'outside the box' is confirmed by his unconvincing rendition of highlights from The Lion King at the firm's Christmas party. Now unemployed, Paul Niemand simply ceases to exist. Under Ice rips into the slick and systematic world of global corporate absurdities; where spin-doctors spin out of control and human emotion, reason and life are redundant. | |||||
