Live from Paradise
Part 1 was a co-production with Dutch theatre company De Daders, performed simultaneously in three locations in Amsterdam linked by video streaming, a single drama played out across the city - a private apartment in Beethovenstraat, a disused pizza shop Bos en Lommer and a warehouse studio in Prinseneiland.
Part 2 linked three locations in the UK – a church in Colchester, a shopping centre in Birmingham and a rehearsal studio in London.
