  • The Sediments of Who We Are

    Sun 30 and Mon 31 August at 6:30pm
    Tickets PWYC from £5 (recommended price £10)
    How does a single leaf carry the weight of identity, memory, and home?

    Our lift is currently out of order, making our basement space inaccessible to wheelchair users.

    We are doing our best to fix this ASAP!

    Plucking, withering, bruising, rolling… As a tea leaf, we search for our identities – oxidising memories, stirring bittersweet sounds and nostalgic fragrances into one cup of tea. 

    This post-dramatic, promenade performance invites audiences into a sensory landscape where the acts of processing, steeping, and pouring tea become rituals of memory and belonging.
