At the Centre Space Programme 1, 2 and 3 takes place at 7pm on 23, 24 & 25 October. The second half of each programme ends with the full cast in an ensemble.

A direct result of The Centre’s workshopping sessions, The Wall of Tools sees the coming together of the various artists, creative practices, and thematic investigations of Season 6.Through the abstract repetition of the mundane, and the use of the human body and various tools of labour, the physical and psychological effects of labour in the city are unpacked and explored.The sound of a drill boring into concrete, the hiss of an iron, the sanitised theatres of a hospital or the dusty reaches of a mine-dump, long forgotten. How do we engage with work or labour in our everyday lives – physically, intellectually, or spiritually?In

The Wall of Tools, many of Season 6’s themes and lines of thought will converge and find meaning through a series of devised and improvised, free-flowing performances as well as through a daily installation at The Centre.
