Lab Works 1 by MA Theatre Lab

Original 'theatre-shorts' experimenting with a range of ideas, practice and forms; Lab Works returns with work-in-development performances across two programmes from our MA Theatre Lab students. Ian Morgan, Course Leader invites you to come and watch as students test out ideas and develop performance in a festival of new work as part of their training.
Possibly messy and very theatrical.
Tickets are £10 and £5 concessions.

TETHERED
Created and performed by Jacob Meadows and Tiffany King.
A couple find themselves in an inescapable chasm - a space in which words are too much and yet not enough. Keeping up appearances of a mundane domestic life, the two explore something of an unspeakable grief.
Content warnings: partial nudity, violence, screaming, scenes of an intimate nature (mild) and allusions to domestic violence.
Odd Occurrences at 221B
Created and performed by Dwight Mlambo.
Mr Whiskers is gone; Ms Kingston is dead. There’s only one man for the job… Private Detective, Justin Case! He’ll tell you who dunnit… or not.
Un-sewn
Created and performed by Barkha Bahar and Federica Ruggieri.
Two women, in opposite worlds. One dress connecting them through its seams, a threat that becomes a thread: the fuse of a riot. A mysterious presence hides in the folding, an ancient Goddess ready to catch fire.
Have you ever had any success telling an angry woman to calm down?
Content warnings: portrayal of sexual violence, embodiment of rape, loud noises, partial nudity and strobe lighting.
KRAKEN TIME
Created and performed by Patti West.
a woman
a life never lived
a dead body
no one is coming to save you
Content warnings: allusions to domestic violence.
Agatha Threw the Baby Out of an Upstairs Window
Created and performed by Eleanor Cobb, Fanny Le Pironnec and Jamie Blake.
My mind holds the key. Pig, pig, sex, pig. Train. Who are you? Can a lady do this? Fall, fall, fall, fall, up, up, up, throw, throw, in, in, in *blueberry* out, out, out, away, far away. Est-ce que les oiseaux se cachent pour mourir? You have to follow the little path with the little girl. Soupe du jour. Fly a meter from the floor. Kissees! Do you want something thinner?
A piece that dives into the subconscious, only never to come up for air.
Content warnings: flashing lights, allusions to sexual violence, drugs and suicide.
