About
Solos with Sourdough by Rosa Postlethwaite is about our lives with other-than-human species.
It presents conversations between the performer and a portion of sourdough starter, with whom they lived for four years.
Contradictory, hipster and heartfelt, the “solos” represent the many ways that the performer is bound to their more-than-human community.
Scott Turnbull presents -How did we get here? is an allegorical tale that combines fact and fiction, whilst exploring the relationship between two best friends & their very different lives.
Part parable, part fable – a late-night argument outside a kebab shop leads Scott on a fantastic and thought-provoking exploration of divisive, trans-Atlantic politics.
