Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in a large multi chambered industrial ice house.
For musical chameleon Richard Youngs both his creative and family life are focused in the room that many of us consider the centre piece of our lives.
A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.

The struggle for sex workers’ rights and how we can understand it in the continuum of care work and other forms of invisibilised and precarious work.
