June 24 in theatremusical The Poem Reincarnating Theatre: Incisions and Excavations at the Old Operating Theatre, 17 - 19 July Occurrent Glow's production is set to revolutionise the relationship between theatre and poetry. Incisions and Excavations has brought five poets, three directors, twelve performers, a visual artist and a composer to the operating table for the creation of an immersive and magical hour of site-specific theatre within one of London's most atmospheric museums. Their patient: poetry. We invite you to hold a stethoscope up to seven poems, exploring their beats and resonances as they emerge with new, theatrical forms born out of their connection with the Old Operating Theatre in London Bridge. Grafted into the roof of St. Thomas's church, this 19th Century women's surgery played host to amputations and childbirth in its day, and provided medical students with a raked auditorium from which they could scrutinise the operating table at its heart. The hospital apothecary practised his scientific art in the herb garret next-door, and it is through these two spaces that we hope to lead you on an evocation of life and love, death and delusion. Occurrent Glow is a new company, set up to encounter the possibilities of poetry in play. For more information, and to purchase tickets.

| Times Saturday review: "It seems there is nothing not being attempted during the ambitious, two-week run of the first London Bridge Festival, a would-be attempt at the capital's version of the Edinburgh Fringe. Comedy, film, art, dance, music - you name it, it's happening. That might suggest that the quality control knob has been torn off and tossed into the Thames - happily, it hasn't. Drawing heavily on the historic locale, there will be plays at the Rose Theatre, Bankside (home to early works by Shakespeare and Marlowe), the Southwark Playhouse, and the wonderful Old Operating Theatre, a museum that does what it says on the tin, housing the oldest operating Theatre in London. It's well worth getting along to see something as well as the shows, the locations are a knockout. Various venues, London Bridge. " |
