OTHER FACES is a new project from Above a Sleeping City (Rhythm Machine), showcasing experimental theatre & performance.
The project aims to present acts who’s approach to their mediums is playful, educated, considered & honest.
EMBOLON (London) are writer/director team Ryan O’Sullivan & Matilda Wnek. In 2015 the pair collaborated on the Lynchian BEARD – The Grin Of Love & Wnek studied under Phillipe Gaulier, mentor to Sacha Baron Cohen.
For OTHER FACES #1, they present the premiere of For Him/For Her, a living love letter, which dances between the tragic and the comic as it explores the fractured relationship of a couple who cannot bear to be in the same room as one another & so communicate solely through their solemn children.
Praise for BEARD
“a beautiful, otherworldly experience” (The Telegraph)
“a haunting visual circus…….as funny as it is horrifying” (Vice Magazine)
STASIS (Edinburgh) are Aniela Piasecka, Isabel Palmstierna & Olivia Norris. The groups fearless, surrealist approach to difficult human problems has marked them out as one the most exciting new performance acts in the country.
For OTHER FACES #1, they present ‘Eros – A Study Of Love?’
Praise for STASIS
“Witty, surreal and intriguing….invites the viewer to make their own associations and narratives” (Sasha Galitzine – Curator “Playroom”)
