Filler at INX

Filler

By Paul Grimmer

Taking place at: The Star and Shadow Cinema, Monday 9th November

Between: 4 pm and 8 pm, bookings on the day

A work for one person at a time, adapted for the theatrical setting at the Star and Shadow Cinema during the INX event.

Placing one against another…

The work plays with the senses, exploring the psychological and unseen forces operating between two bodies in space. Exposing in the gaps between a primitive desire to fill and smooth space, interrupt and control time and cover up the silence.

Originally developed and performed during an exchange with Istanbul where participants memories and fears of interrogation transformed the work. This adapted version, in an overtly theatrical setting places the spotlight on the viewer. Taking a familiar space with familiar rules and etiquette and shifting the balance of power.

INX has been organised by 25 Stratford Grove, and is taking place as part of Wunderbar Festival 2009

INX is supported by Arts Council England, Grants for the Arts.
