For voices, percussion, narrator and artisans Composer Giorgio Battistelli takes sixteen artisans dressed in overalls and aprons and sets them to work in the Traverse Theatre producing a compelling and evocative symphony from your wildest imagination. Demolishing the barriers between life and art, everyday tools become musical instruments and the workmen transform into musicians in this fantastical and memorable performance piece. Standing to one side, an actor reads extracts by Enlightenment writers describing in turn the tools and the work being done on stage. Sparks fly, eggs crack and hammers pound in this unforgettable blend human creativity and basic hard work.
