  • Infinita at the Peacock Theatre CULTURE THEATRE
    Infinita at the Peacock Theatre CULTURE THEATRE 2ND FEBRUARY 2016 MICHELLE KEEPENCE “The loss of the face can be the beginning of a great freedom,” says Hago Schüler, director and performer of Infinita, in a recent interview. He goes on to explain the power of masks for both the artist and the spectator in the productions created by the Familie Flöz, and more specifically of Infinita, brought to England as part of 2016’s London International Mime Festival. Infinita’s masked characters are a fascinating spectacle that proves both mesmerising and inexplicably disturbing. Their use of exaggerated movement and hyperbolic gesture quickly dismisses the necessity of speech in the exploration of the most basic of human concepts: life and death. We are presented with characters at the beginning and the end of their lives, through which certain parallels are created, most notably between the physical extremes demonstrated by both babies and the elderly. Their relationships, despite having substantially developed over time, remain fundamentally the same as they move into the final stages of their lives, all of them experiencing love and loss. A series of sketches depicting mournful tragedy in one instance, and clown-esque slapstick comedy in the next, catapult the audience between fits of laughter and the unavoidable urge to cry. The music of the piece is a key tool used to transport us between the two extremes and create contrasting atmospheres, as well as provoking differing interactions between the characters. Interaction with the audience is encouraged, as one scene sees two babies playing with a giant ball that is batted in and out of the crowd, a scene particularly appreciated by the younger members of the audience.

  • Two Trains Running by August Wilson Directed by Nancy Medina
    An English Touring Theatre and Royal & Derngate, Northampton co-production Two Trains Running By August Wilson Directed by Nancy Medina #TwoTrainsRunning Tuesday 15 - Saturday 19 October 2019 We are delighted to welcome you to this performance of August Wilson’s Two Trains Running, our co-production with Royal & Derngate, Northampton. One of the great 20th century American playwrights, August Wilson’s writing is monumental, beautiful and visionary. Set in 1969 Pittsburgh, Two Trains Running showcases Wilson’s genius in portraying life in all its complexities. Its themes of gentrification, the poverty trap and police tensions with the black community all still resonate strongly today. But more than anything his writing is full of optimism and hope, full of rich voices and characters with whom it is a privilege to spend time with. We thank Nancy Medina and the magnificent cast that she has assembled for breathing life into these characters, our partners at Royal & Derngate, Northampton and the Royal Theatrical Support Trust for helping to bring this story to the stage. You can keep up to date with the production on tour @ETTtweet #TwoTrainsRunning or by signing up to our mailing list at ett.org.uk. We hope you enjoy the show.
