The End

Thu 14 Oct 7.30pm | Full £12 | Conc £8 | Age 16+ 

BOOK NOW

In this new piece, Bert and Nasi dance the end of their relationship, imagining what a future without each other might look like. 

Above the stage and projected onto a screen, two parallel narratives run alongside each other: the end of the Earth and the end of their collaboration. In the vein of their previous work, it is a poignant, sad and funny account of the ongoing ecological crisis. Their dance is a reminder and a celebration of our own mortality, and that of everything around us.

Time unravels and stretches on into infinity, but the end has never seemed closer

Lyn Gardner, Stagedoor.

Both insistently silly and unreservedly heart-rending

★★★★ Guardian

Like shaking your muscles out, like a long-waited exhale of a show

Super Duper Close Up

Thu 18 Nov 7.30pm | Full £12 | Conc £8 | Age 16+

BOOK NOW

We’re all starring in the movie of our life. Selfie after selfie, post after post. It’s exhausting. So take a break. Bask in the glow of the big screen as someone else has a go. See the heroine all dewy-eyed as the camera zooms in. And in. And in. 

Get set for a live-filmed ride through the anxieties of an unsettlingly ordinary woman’s existence. An epic journey to everywhere and nowhere, through a labyrinth of click-bait and pop cliché, via an infinite stream of frozen pouts and desperate smiles.
