Rugburn


Full Spiral Productions (USA)

Celebrity designer Mat Sanders’ fabulously designed existence implodes spectacularly when sudden betrayal triggers a hysterical, one-man meltdown. Rugburn explores what happens when you’ve built a glittering life on a foundation of unresolved shame and perfectly upholstered defences begin splitting at the seams. Hollywood gossip, popper-fuelled confessions and impeccably appointed interiors collide in this fast-paced, filthy, deliciously deranged neo-vaudevillian spectacle. From the highs of styling A-listers and hosting makeover TV to the lows of underground sleaze and spectacular self-destruction, watch Sanders shape-shift through the dazzling wreckage of his life as style spirals into chaos. Brace yourself for Rugburn.

Created and Performed by | Mat Sanders
Directed by | Telly Kousakis
Choreographed by | Nicholas Lanzisera

    Ha

    I am the voice of the dead, cast upon the dry shores by the sea. The voice of the dead is the ever-present voice that collects and remembers the stories and conditions of life of the unjustly killed and innocent victims of humanity. At a time of humanity’s greatest development, we have commited the most dire crimes of war and live in moral paradox. Ha highlights the ambivalence of attitude, the ignorance of guilt, and the pleasure of comfort. An uninterrupted performance built on the performer’s voice and depth of breath.Written by | Mariam MegvinytePerformed by | Anano MakharadzeDirected by | Sandro Kalandadze Set Design by | Tamri OkhikianiSound Design by | Ani Zakareishvilifacebook.com/harakicompany

    The FootballActress

    An autobiographical one-woman drama-comedy show blending comedy characterisation and football performance to tell the unique journey of Lucia Mallardi, a Berlin-based Italian former semi-professional footballer and artist. Travelling the world as a street artist with her football and her hat, she has created poetic dialogue between two seemingly distant worlds: football as an art and art as a discipline of sacrifice and passion. Inspiring audiences across Europe and beyond from the football field to the stage, Lucia's story is empowering – challenging boundaries, merging sports and theatre in a way that only she can.Written, Created and Performed by | Lucia MallardiPhotography by | Pino Montisci

    The Fahrenheit Alliance V

    An intimate, one-on-one multimedia piece inspired by the novel Fahrenheit 451. Based on Kyle Yamada’s play, this new immersive experience leads you into a world where words survive through spoken transmission. As you lie on a bed, distant landscapes and voices surround you. Wrapped in a quilt, you discover another’s memories through a multimedia montage of whispers, warmth and deep personal connection. More than a performance: you are invited to join the Alliance. When you leave, the cycle continues: you record your own voice and images, to send back to be shared with someone, somewhere.A digtal version of this work, The Fahrenheit Alliance III, is also avaialble in our on-demand programme.The same company perform The Story of the Tower in our digital on-demand programme.Written by | Kyle YamadaDirected, Produced and Performed by | Mitsuko HiraiVoice by | Tamaki KobayashiMusic by | Mayumi IshidaStage Design and Video Editing by | Xu WenfeiTechnical Direction by | Rob Morenowww.mitsukohirai.comwww.facebook.com/mitsuko.hirai.5www.instagram.com/hiraimitsuko/

    The Anonymous Monsters

    This surreal tale begins with the recruitment of a hapless newcomer to a rural neighbourhood volunteer association. Responding to a complaint about noisy frogs, he goes to investigate. He encounters a supernatural world populated with yokai, mysterious supernatural entities of Japanese mythology who sing, dance and struggle to coexist with contemporary human society. The result is a funny sideways look at humans from their perspective. With wild hand-made costumes, giant sculptural origami puppets and original music, this is a unique and mind-blowing Japanese experience for all ages. Performed in Japanese with English surtitles.Written and Directed by | Saori AokiPerforned by | Koji Higuchi, Madoka Suehiro, Mio Kiuchi, Tatsuya Hoshi, Masayasu Yamamoto, Ken Kuriki, Munekazu Tani, Suzumaru Honda, Makoto Honda and Saori AokiMusic Composed by | Makoto HondaTranslated to English by | Claire TanakaSound Design by | Ken KurikiLighting Design by | Atsushi HiramatsuPhotography by | Mitsue Nakamurakasojogi.comfacebook.com/kasoujyougiinstagram.com/kasojogi/youtube.com/watch?v=DHRnE-Rx0Ck
