Six Short Shows by David Gale - T0684185671Playwright David Gale, erstwhile writer for Lumiere & Son, after some decades in the scripting saddle, turns to a new performance challenge. Having toyed with the short form in his must-have text and image entertainment David Gale's Peachy Coochy Nites, he will now test the possibilities of brevity to the limit. Dash Dash Dash is a grand theatrical experiment whose components are only twenty-five minutes long, yet whose impact will be feature length. David Gale, working with a team of hot young theatre designers from Wimbledon College of Art, will write and direct a play a month for six months then combine the units into one final omnibus edition. The fractured, hilarious and melancholy works will stand alone nicely and combine with unanticipated precision. 'It is a rare pleasure to find a performance that is both technically superb and has the audience crying with laughter... The actors produce one of the finest displays of ensemble acting I have ever seen.' Total Theatre Produced in association with Wimbledon College of Art and commissioned by BAC. An Arts Council Lottery funded project. | |
