The temperature is rising for three heads stuck in the muck of the anthroposcene. Beyond petrified, they have their dreams, each other, wet earth, the taste of death and molten rocks to pass the time.
After a successful residence over the summer, international theatre company HOAX performed their performance-in-progress "STUCK" during Freshers' Week 2016.
Created by Jillian Wallis in collaboration with Daniele Ridolfi, Reverie is a physical theatre piece about one man's yearning to escape the routines of his life.
An early version was shown at Bathway in March 2015
OPHELIA REWOUND
Resident Antigoni Spanou presented 'Ophelia Rewound', a one-woman intimate, interactive performance, inspired by the character of Ophelia. The piece is an amalgamation of theatre, life and performance art.
The performance is a story of a modern, real woman, that can be accessed by everyone. The audience enter Ophelia’s world and by witnessing her story of heartbreak and despair, both experience a simultaneous transformation. Ophelia's story transforms into one of self-discovery and acceptance, while the audience transform from voyeurs to her invited guests. Read more >

TALES by BAIT THEATRE
Performed as part of the 2018 University of Greenwich Fresher’s Week, ‘Tales’ was created by Bait Theatre - a company consisting of physical performers Michelle Madsen and Liz Margereson, who met making a feminist street dance piece. Tales is about the stories that make us, a punk feminist quest crafted to explode the tales which trap us - a glitter bomb rave through tall tales and urban myths both old and new.
Since then they have developed the show during a second residency at BTN in February 2019, which has now become 'Kill the Princess'. We will see them back in May/June for further rehearsals - watch this space!
