The Nine O'Clock Slot

Work:: The Nine O'Clock Slot (S02068529115)

Nine o'clock: the time of day that Councils bury the poor, the isolated, and the forgotten. Funerals that no one attends.
Author Hannah Davies
Author Annecy Lax

Production:: (T0928578430)

ice&fire confronts the disturbing rise in the number of so-called ?paupers' funerals' in modern-day Britain in this experimental piece that retraces the stories of four individuals buried in the same communal grave. The Nine O'Clock Slot is based on true-life accounts where heart-breaking stories find comic touches and uplifting conclusions. Performed in the industrial underground spaces of the Red Gallery, the play takes you from the world of the living to the secretive world of the dead and dying. Fusing film, choreography and spoken-word poetry with skilled physical comedy and song-and-dance numbers, this is a totally immersive theatre experience.
