Startlingly effective: jagged, knockabout fun with a decidedly sharp edge. ( The Times)
PALMYRA is an exploration of revenge, the politics of destruction and what we consider to be barbaric, inviting people to step back from the news and look at what lies beneath, and beyond, civilization.
Following an extended, unanimously-acclaimed run at the Edinburgh Fringe 2017, Bert and Nasis Total Theatre Award-winning, weird, wonderful and strangely stressful PALMYRA ( The Stage) has been presented across the world: from London to Madrid, Berlin to Sarajevo, Vancouver to Adelaide.
WINNER Total Theatre Award for Innovation, Experimentation & Playing with Form 2017
WINNER Stockholm Fringe Festival 2017 Grand Prix
Selected in Lyn Gardner's Top 10 theatre of 2017
WINNER Jury Prize, FITT Festival Tarragona 2018
The duo who created Eurohouse shift from comic to tragic in a brilliant piece that reflects on Syria and the breakdown of relationships. ( The Guardian)
Developed with support from Croquis_BCN (Barcelona), Bristol Ferment, MAYK, Tobacco Factory Theatres, Nuffield Southampton Theatres, Ovalhouse and HOME.
Research and development of PALMYRA supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
