Founded in 1982 by Michael Merwitzer and Sian Williams, The Kosh is a group of diverse original performers who endeavour to make the arts accessible and provide life enhancing experiences. They are winners of international awards in theatre, film and dance and critically acclaimed by the public and the press. The Storeroom, a dark, comic physical tale played to a mesmerising soundtrack. It is a moving jigsaw and a stylish thriller. From child to cabaret to convict; this sinister montage of contemporary theatrical styles it bewitches from start to finish. It’s a one woman show that tells a tragic story of lust, violence and flawed dreams, all from a dark, deserted storeroom. The sound design and set add another layer to this mysterious piece as old boxes become cells, become doorways. Become a playground full of passionate adventures and eerie confessions. Live and recorded voices muddle to enhance the melodramatic account of this disturbed woman’s life. Suspended from a ladder she hypnotises with control and prowess. Revenge is a cold dance. She’s dressed to kill and ready to sing. The answer is in The Storeroom, if only she can make the pieces fit. Seen through the eyes of a dazzling dancer, reality and fantasy collide as she tries to unlock the secret of her mysterious past.
