Moving, authentic and thought provoking. the ritual of ‘waiting’ so beautifully captured. I hear a five-hour version is in the making. It’s a beautiful idea.

Dynamic, provocative performance. Really enjoyed the combo of personal story and scientific information.

The operating theatre comes to the theatre to celebrate the wonders of science and mysteries of the human body.

For our fifth micro-production Stan’s Cafe will spend a week exploring the ethics, practicalities, history, iconography and raw emotions of a heart-transplant. Made in consultation with medics from Queen Elizabeth and Royal Papworth hospitals this production features live music and promises to be beautiful, poetic and meditative.
