Clod Ensemble: Under Glass

Tuesday 2 November
7pm, 8pm & 9pm Studio 31

Under Glass is a performance which takes place in a series of glass jars and cabinets. The latest work from renowned collaborators Suzy Willson (director) and Paul Clark (composer), Under Glass continues Clod Ensemble’s reputation for work that defies traditional categorization, blending visual imagery, choreography, an original score by Paul Clark and text by poet Alice Oswald, to create an animated exhibition of human life.

At once museum exhibit, gallery, medical laboratory, Under Glass lifts characters out of the hurly burly of everyday life and frames their moments of solitude; examining human beings attempting, with varying success, to live within their limits.

N.B. These performances each last 30 minutes and have a limited capacity of 40.
