Everybody Has To Be Somewhere

Tour synopsis, cast & creatives

An intergenerational collaboration between a young emerging Chinese artist and a semi-retired old-timer from the UK - two performers who find their identities as physical beings merging - challenged by the unexplained accidents involved in their coming together. Simple structures of time and causality develop into complex interactions that evoke the roles that memory, culture and difference have in their relationship. Everybody Has To Be Somewhere grows organically from a seed and shows how our perception of time shapes and fragments our reality, making each performance unique and unrepeatable.
