Synopsis: | Battle lines are drawn across 400 years, from Glasgow to Russia, as two families prepare to become one. This audio play leads audiences through the public streets and hidden spaces of Glasgow, as Poorboy return to the city bringing their world of rituals, fairytale and the dark corners of family alive with lies, music, soundscape, smells, and their imaginative curation of visual art, photography and film. Critically acclaimed Scottish company, Poorboy return to Glasgow with their latest site-specific sensory adventure. Travelling between sites and installations around the city centre, with an mp3 player as your guide, Blood & Roses invites you to take a non-traditional look at the traditional themes of ritual, loyalty and ideas of home. Experience first-hand the universal, intergenerational ritual of marriage and the ways in which it is celebrated through smells and textures, soundscape and music, photos and short films. Poorboy have a prestigious track record of working in found spaces and of ambitiously appropriating the vistas and visuals of everyday life into their exhilarating and involving stories. Their dramatic re-imaginings have been critically acclaimed and are underpinned by the companys bold explorations of cross disciplinary collaborative working. | |||||

Synopsis: | Richard's brief is to oversee the creation of BetterLife.com, a virtual world where we can all - at the click of a mouse and the surrender of our credit card details - have the life we want. Online, we can even enter the lawless Red Zone and wreak any kind of havoc - muggings, murder. sexual predation - we choose without censure or reprisals. The only limits are those imposed by our finances and imaginations. Richard. desperate to impress and achieve, talks the talk to us. his assistant, his bosses - and what a wonderful litany of glossy advertorial and motivational cliches it is. | |||||
