Cheese

Details

Bicycle powered site specific theatre, set in a giant cheese. An imaginative, allegorical take on the financial crisis set is a disused Oxford Street building, this dynamic exploration of the behavioral causes of the crash finds a home in the middle of High Street spending heaven. Joe and Freya have it all: the job, the car, the house made of Emmental in an up-and-coming part of town. Sure, they have the odd disagreement over the best way to make fondue - but they're living the dream, more or less. Then one morning, the cheese runs out. There's no explanation and someone seems to have changed the rules overnight. Joe sets off on a journey through a labyrinth of cheese hole tunnels to investigate; he finds unexpected laboratories, factories, casinos - and some worrying clues that he had more to do with the cheese disappearance than he originally thought. Running time: 90mins. Suitable for ages 14+
