A man lives and dies for his work on the 9th floor.
Mortar is a performance that explores two worlds; the story of the man upstairs, and the memories of a child on a beach. Nestled on the first of nine floors, the performer creates a live soundscape and tells a tale that tries to untangle the grief and pain of letting your childhood dreams die to go and work in concrete buildings. Inspired by John Hartford’s 1971 song 'In Tall Buildings', Mortar is a show for everyone - the everyday worker - you, me and the man upstairs.
This performance takes place in CPT's basement space which has step-free access via lift.
Supported by MST.
"Hats off to the CPT for this fine show, well researched and coming from a place of great passion... Community theatre at its most effective."
