A 100 strong Feral Choir of people who’ve never improvised with their voices before, conducted by composer Phil Minton.
Equal parts spectacle, installation and performance, his set for us is a specially developed work, ‘turning’, which features an orchestra of multiple turntables, 4 projections and a collection of old, and, quite probably, misfiring analogue kit.

A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.

A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.

A sung-through Nubian musical ballet. A darkly humorous take on sexual trauma and what magical and ancestral tools might heal it.
