Where We Live and What We Live For (from 8pm)
Simon and Peter Bowes are Kings of England. In a series of short narrations and little performances a father and son deconstruct their family archive journeying back and forth across the years. Inventing what they cannot remember, they go off in search of beloved places, people and things, imagining a careworn, aesthetic world where words can be un-said, deeds un-done, and deaths un-died.

The Post-Show Party Show (from 9pm)
Award-winning writer and performance-maker Michael Pinchbeck recreates the post-show party where his parents met in 1970 after an amateur dramatic production of The Sound of Music. Mixing text from the past and present with movement to the real-time soundtrack of The Sound of Music, The Post-Show Party Show asks what is present, and what is absent, what is professional and what is amateur.
Produced by Spiel and supported by Dance4 and Springdance.
