Transit

How do you pack a life into 23 kilograms? One item at a time. Transit is an award-winning, genre-bending investigation of identity, belonging and migration. Told through a series of vignettes utilising physical theatre, multilingual performance, poetry, dance, multimedia, practical lights and music, Transit delicately navigates the feeling of being ‘too foreign for here, too foreign for home.’ From the endless cycle of unpacking and repacking to wondering when you can stop being considered ‘a foreigner’ to building community and hope amidst uncertainty, this deeply human piece is a love letter to anyone who has ever moved away from home. Based on true stories gathered from migrants across the UK, Transit asks: what does it mean to settle in the space between languages, cultures and identities? All performances of Transit are creatively captioned.

Bury Me Before You Marry Me

In some parts of Asia, there is a belief: when a young man dies unmarried, his parents will find him a bride and hold a ghost wedding to accompany him in death. Sometimes, the bride is a corpse. Sometimes, the woman being buried is still alive. One day, a British man named Jason discovers that his Chinese girlfriend has been involved in a ghost marriage… ___________________________________________________________________ This is a dark comedy. An immersive interactive theatre experience. The audience does not simply watch the story. They become part of it. You will interact with the characters, and at key moments, you will make crucial decisions on their behalf. Every choice will completely change the direction of the story. As a result, each performance leads to a different ending and different fates for the characters. This is a ritual that requires your participation. The ending is yours to decide. Produced and presented by Susu Productions Get your tickets HERE
