CURRENT PRODUCTIONS
By Carlo Gebler. Performed in four shops, in daily use, Kabosh takes you on an adventure into the past. Journey back to 1912 and join Henry and Harriet in their frantic escape to the New World. (75 mins, no interval, 6 on stage, 11 on the road.)

By Patrick Sanders. A one-minute, location-specific, piece of theatre performed to an individual audience member. Each piece can be performed many times and reinvented to suit the theme of the umbrella festival or conference or event. (1 min, 1 on stage and 1 crew per piece.)

By Miche Doherty. Four eight-minute performances inter-cutting the evening buffet in the drawing room of the Titanic, involving eye-witness accounts of the launch, sailing and sinking of the Titanic. (32 mins, no interval, 4 on stage, 5 on the road.)

FUTURE PRODUCTIONS
Created in association with the Belfast Jewish community, this project will shine a light on one of Belfast’s less familiar histories through the collection of oral history, leading to the creation of a new play by playwright Gavin Kostick. The production will be complimented with an exhibition and a companion publication.

Inspired by composer Colin Reid’s latest album , this production promises to create an explosive piece of new work encompassing theatre, circus and music in a dynamic presentation that will take place in a Spiegeltent. (75 mins, no interval, 12 on stage,18 on the road.)

WRAP-AROUND
Post-show discussions with actors, writer, director and design team (dependent on production). Presentations on site-specific performance and workshops on related themes with writers/performers.
