Conversations

All the conversations we haven’t had yet

In this raw yet heart-warming play, playwright Steven Kavuma invites us to observe four conversations with people who lay bare their inner thoughts and feelings at pivotal moments in their lives. The play is an exploration of how we love, how we grieve, and how we must grow up. Steven’s vulnerable and warm writing gives us all the conversations we could have had, should have had, and would have had, if only…

A Measure of the Sea

A Measure of the Sea

Presented by 'The Scylla Collective', A Measure of the Sea is a collection of performance works that intertwine Queer ecology with timeless mythology, in a deep dive exploration of our interconnectedness with the ocean. Each piece within this collection serves as a reflection, both personal and universal, on humanity's intricate relationship with the vast expanse of the ocean and all that resides within its depths.

Sin É (That's That)

Sin É (That's That)

When waiting forever, time and identity intertwine. Two souls, shifting like shadows in the twilight. Waiting, navigating parallel realities…while the tree grows, whispering the promise of eternity to pass.

Inspired by Absurdism, Vaudeville and German Expressionism, Sin É is a journey through time and space, exploring hope, persistence and humour in extraordinary circumstances.

Devised by the Company, directed by Alan Fielden.
