Inconvenient truths...empty promises...careless whispers...and outright lies... Veering wildly from the ridiculous to the sublime, The Things People Say rips up the theatre rulebook and makes paper aeroplanes from its pages. The Things People Say will be a devised improvisation performance exploring the idea of what people say and the impact that can have on themselves, those around them, and the wider society. From famous speeches to local gossip, the show will look at our relationship to language and the power of words. The performance will be an ensemble piece and will incorporate text, music, dance, questions and lists. It will be a bold and breathless experiment in theatre making and performance. Together 6 performers will explore, collaborate and devise to create a unique and original piece of theatre in 10 days.
