New Theatre show- Visualise Reloaded
"Prepare to be amazed as two techno-clowns present an altogether different kind of science class. Inspired by the quote ‘deep meaning lies often in childish play’, multi-talented duo Debbie Syrop and Gareth Smith take their lead from the everyday. Using the objects found there, they create physical theatre, projected images, music and live demonstrations to show how the smallest change in perspective can create a mysterious canvas of sound, visuals and image."
