Stage: In Transit

The Artichoke Group presents a poignant piece of physical theatre with a superb solo performance In Transit is a brave and visceral piece of exhilarating physical theatre. It follows the story of Ella, who wakes up in a strange place, nameless and with a blank memory.

This story deals with a serious and unspoken subject, the circus of life and death, the feelings of joy, happiness, and constant change in life. It’s a dark, tragic tale, and yet it is full of captured moments of sheer beauty and well observed comedy.

It is in fact a strangely uplifting and life affirming engagement between one performer and her audience. Accompanied by an award-winning soundtrack performed live by musicians occupying one side of the stage that forms Ella’s world.

The Old Courtroom, Thu 23–Fri 24 May, 9pm, £8.50/5
