Burnt Out In Biscuit Land, 75 min

By Touretteshero

While the world outside is in chaos, three neurodiverse inhabitants of an apocalyptic bunker are doing their best to survive.

Blending film, live performance and conversation, Touretteshero’s funny, surreal and moving show explores resistance and joy in the face of a crisis.

This is the follow-up to Touretteshero’s smash-hit productions ‘Backstage in Biscuit Land’ and ‘Not I’ by Samuel Beckett, featuring writer, artist, and activist Jess Thom.

All performances will be live-streamed, so you can either experience the show at the venue, or online if you would prefer and you can decide at the last minute.

All performances are relaxed, captioned in English, have audio description built in, are in a wheelchair-accessible venue, and have COVID-related access provisions in place.

The performance on Thursday the 8th of June will be BSL interpreted.

Stop Relying on that Body, 15 min

Tivoli is a very tired drag queen who can't dance.

They've been using their unlimited and CTN micro-commission time to produce a new performance - 'Stop Relying on that Body' - a show that brings together music, movement and comedy to tell the story of two personas inhabiting one very wonky body.

The show explores themes of chronic illness, queer community and medical trauma through a hopeful lens. "Through developing the show, I've been digging deep into the big stuff with joy, finding the surreal in the serious and bringing it together into something beautiful," says Tivoli.
