ARTISTIC POLICY
Uninvited Guests makes entertaining and provocative performance that tries to make sense of our media-saturated culture, combining high tech with low tech, the visceral with the virtual. Formed in Bristol in 1998, the company works in various contexts and constellations, focusing mainly on performance but also producing installation and digital media.

CURRENT PRODUCTIONS
Uninvited Guests seek to found Arcadia in the theatre, a rural idyll amongst the city’s hubbub. They invent fake songs and fake dances for our green and plastic land, declaim hip Romantic poetry and conjure epic landscapes.

Trained by a TV make-up artist, Uninvited Guests carefully fabricate bloody wounds on each other’s bodies. An immersive soundtrack is created live by sampling performers’ bodies.

FUTURE PRODUCTION
Somewhere between a wedding reception and a radio show, Uninvited Guests takes requests and dedicates songs to others’ loves.

WRAP-AROUND ACTIVITY
Workshops (2–6 hours) and presentations.
