The Bridge
“I’m from the spirit world, OK? We don’t stick to the script”
At the bridge between dreams and reality, Sis, the last dream-keeper, is in perpetual labour. Her only contact is with ‘The Voice’, who gives out orders but no answers. So when she decides enough is enough, what happens? This is about systems change. This is about a new story. This is experimental new writing: a 20-minute dark, funny, uncomfortable exploration of imagination and purpose in modern times.
Exeter-based writer-actor Micha Colombo has a diverse creative practise, spanning theatre, spoken word, storytelling, film and song. She is often drawn to explore women’s voices and experiences and our relationship with nature. This is a brand new collaboration with Chilean director Cristina Gómez-Penna.
Beyond Face present: Stories Within Us
Beyond Face bring together participants from two strands of their work: Regional Voices and Beyond Face Youth Company. Stories Within Us is a collection of monologues written by the participants and accompanied with a musical underscore.
