We are delighted to announce the Gulbenkian Picks from our Drama and Theatre<\/a> students\u2019 summer festival of student work, to be performed in the Gulbenkian<\/a> theatre on Tuesday 4 June 2019.<\/p>\n

Two performances have been chosen, one representing the Stage 1 students taking DR339: Making Performance 2<\/a>, and one from the Stage 3 students as the culmination of the module DR678: Creative Project<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Adam\u2019s Birthday Party, <\/em>by The Bald Sopranos, is the first chosen performance from our Stage 1 students. The ensemble have been experimenting with various performance practices and plays chosen from different moments in the 20th\u00a0Century (including Anton Chekhov\u2019s\u00a0The Cherry Orchard<\/em>, Susan Glaspell\u2019s\u00a0The Verge<\/em>, Eugene Ionesco\u2019s\u00a0The Bald Soprano\u00a0<\/em>and Caryl Churchill\u2019s\u00a0Cloud Nine<\/em>).<\/p>\n

From Stage 3, the Gulbenkian has chosen the show Toxxicc,<\/em> by ensemble Britney\u2019s Peers. Having graduated from University, Ally, Em, Shan and Josie reunite in their hometown. After getting kicked out of a party for drunken behaviour, the girls plonk themselves on a bus stop bench. In 40 minutes, the girls tackle sex, body image, infidelity, and last, and definitely least, BOYS!<\/p>\n

The Gulbenkian is open to the public and seats 340. The show will be free, beginning at 7.30pm. For further details, please see the page here:
