Circomedia Graduate Company in
PLAY DEAD
Directed by John-Paul Zaccarini
Circomedia’s unmissable end-of-degree-course show is getting an exciting new twist this year. Unusually, its performers are no longer students; they’re graduates and each had to pass tough auditions to win a place in this production - directed by the internationally-acclaimed dance and circus-theatre artist, John-Paul Zaccarini.
The show’s setting is a one-time orphanage. Old houses, of course, are known for their character but this one has a full cast of them of which only two are among the living – for now. Expect dark comedy, sad moments, schlock, shock, gore and awe as Circomedia’s Class of 2012 salutes some of our favourite horror/ghost films.
Age guidance: 16+
Doors and cafe-bar open from 6.45pm
Tickets: £12 (£8 concessions)
Venue: Circomedia, St Paul’s Church, Portland Square, Bristol BS2 8SJ
