  • 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!

    Withering, bruising, rolling…

    As a tea leaf, we search for our identities –

    oxidizing 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.

    Tobi King Bakare and this theatre deserve a shout-out for such a young, diverse audience. There is so much talk about audiences being full of over 60s and why, why can’t theatres get the crowds in to reflect society in general? Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
