JGRTC bring a festive favourite to life at the RJA & HS this Christmas season!
Based on the beloved film, ELF, this hilarious fish-out-of-water comedy follows Buddy, a young orphan who learns he is human after being raised by elves in the North Pole. Buddy journeys to New York City to find his birth father, who turns out to be in dire need of some Christmas spirit. This modern-day Christmas classic is sure to make everyone embrace their inner ‘elf’ – after all, the best way to spread Christmas Cheer is singing loud for all to hear!
Based on the 2003 New Line Cinema film written by David Berenbaum. Music by Matthew Sklar, lyrics by Chad Beguelin, book by Thomas Meehan and Bob Martin.

The world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered in Jersey, this exhibition explores why people might have buried it there.
In 2012 the world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered buried in a field in Jersey. This exhibition explores what might have led people to bury a hoard of 70,000 coins and jewellery in Jersey, 2000 years ago and looks closely at some of the items found within the hoard.
Explore the time when Roman armies marched through Europe, 2000 years ago, they left behind them a trail of death and destruction which almost wiped out the culture and civilization of the Celtic people who lived there. Using scientific and archaeological research we can learn more about the people that buried the hoard, about their lives and customs. Ground-breaking research can tell us more about the moment and the place the hoard was buried. It might even challenge some long-held ideas about why hoards were buried.

his 20-metre long replica Longhouse was built over two years by volunteers, with oversight from Ancient Technology expert Luke Winter. Since it was officially opened in 2019, volunteers have performed day-to-day maintenance tasks using authentic techniques and tools, and act as guides, demonstrators and interpreters to explain the project to visitors. They are also continually researching, experimenting and training to acquire more Stone Age skills to share, including basket-making and flintknapping.
Every Tuesday, a member of the volunteer team lights a fire in the Longhouse using authentic techniques. This adds warmth to the building but also stops any insect infestation in the traditional straw roof. During your visit, the volunteer will also talk about the traditional methods used and the lessons learned during the build.

Jersey is a special Island. It is tiny – a small dot on the world map. But its size belies the breadth of its unique and varied heritage. This NEW free exhibition explores what makes us Jersey.
The Island has been a home, a haven, a paradise, a battleground, a prison. It has been a place of dreams and disasters, of connection and isolation, of vulnerability and strength, of unique creatures and ancient landscapes, of pioneers and tradition.
Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, four million people have been part of its history.
This exhibition celebrates some of our Island’s most significant moments and discovers how living here has affected the lives of just a few of those four million. Using our most special objects as witnesses to our past, it explores how we have come to be an Island and Islanders.
Prehistoric mammoth skulls and dwarf red deer bones tell the story of becoming an island; gold torques and ancient coin hoards explore the theme of Jersey as a sacred island; royal charters describe the Island as separate and different. During the Battle of Jersey and the Occupation, the Island was a place of conflict. At other times, Jersey was a place of refuge. Islands are also a little bit exotic and Jersey has attracted artists, honeymooners and holidaymakers. In this new exhibition, discover stories of our Island and explore what it means to be Jersey.
Forty talented photographers from Jersey and Guernsey have contributed to this wonderful exhibition, which is the first to take place in our new museum space at Hamptonne.
More than 200 images, printed on banners, capture the incredibly rich biodiversity we have in the Channel Islands – from birds, insects and mammals, to wildflowers, fungi and sea life, with a focus particularly upon Jersey.

his 20-metre long replica Longhouse was built over two years by volunteers, with oversight from Ancient Technology expert Luke Winter. Since it was officially opened in 2019, volunteers have performed day-to-day maintenance tasks using authentic techniques and tools, and act as guides, demonstrators and interpreters to explain the project to visitors. They are also continually researching, experimenting and training to acquire more Stone Age skills to share, including basket-making and flintknapping.
Every Tuesday, a member of the volunteer team lights a fire in the Longhouse using authentic techniques. This adds warmth to the building but also stops any insect infestation in the traditional straw roof.

The world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered in Jersey, this exhibition explores why people might have buried it there.
In 2012 the world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered buried in a field in Jersey. This exhibition explores what might have led people to bury a hoard of 70,000 coins and jewellery in Jersey, 2000 years ago and looks closely at some of the items found within the hoard.
Explore the time when Roman armies marched through Europe, 2000 years ago, they left behind them a trail of death and destruction which almost wiped out the culture and civilization of the Celtic people who lived there. Using scientific and archaeological research we can learn more about the people that buried the hoard, about their lives and customs. Ground-breaking research can tell us more about the moment and the place the hoard was buried. It might even challenge some long-held ideas about why hoards were buried.
his 20-metre long replica Longhouse was built over two years by volunteers, with oversight from Ancient Technology expert Luke Winter. Since it was officially opened in 2019, volunteers have performed day-to-day maintenance tasks using authentic techniques and tools, and act as guides, demonstrators and interpreters to explain the project to visitors. They are also continually researching, experimenting and training to acquire more Stone Age skills to share, including basket-making and flintknapping.
Every Tuesday, a member of the volunteer team lights a fire in the Longhouse using authentic techniques. This adds warmth to the building but also stops any insect infestation in the traditional straw roof. During your visit, the volunteer will also talk about the traditional methods used and the lessons learned during the build.

Jersey is a special Island. It is tiny – a small dot on the world map. But its size belies the breadth of its unique and varied heritage. This NEW free exhibition explores what makes us Jersey.
The Island has been a home, a haven, a paradise, a battleground, a prison. It has been a place of dreams and disasters, of connection and isolation, of vulnerability and strength, of unique creatures and ancient landscapes, of pioneers and tradition.
Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, four million people have been part of its history.
This exhibition celebrates some of our Island’s most significant moments and discovers how living here has affected the lives of just a few of those four million. Using our most special objects as witnesses to our past, it explores how we have come to be an Island and Islanders.
Prehistoric mammoth skulls and dwarf red deer bones tell the story of becoming an island; gold torques and ancient coin hoards explore the theme of Jersey as a sacred island; royal charters describe the Island as separate and different. During the Battle of Jersey and the Occupation, the Island was a place of conflict. At other times, Jersey was a place of refuge. Islands are also a little bit exotic and Jersey has attracted artists, honeymooners and holidaymakers. In this new exhibition, discover stories of our Island and explore what it means to be Jersey.
Forty talented photographers from Jersey and Guernsey have contributed to this wonderful exhibition, which is the first to take place in our new museum space at Hamptonne.
More than 200 images, printed on banners, capture the incredibly rich biodiversity we have in the Channel Islands – from birds, insects and mammals, to wildflowers, fungi and sea life, with a focus particularly upon Jersey.

Ben Crocker has become known for his modern, fast-paced pantomimes full of family fun, and Jack and the Beanstalk is no different.
With toe-tapping music, lots of fun and the usual corny jokes, this pantomime follows the original fairy story as we see Jack sell Daisy the Cow for beans which grow into a magical beanstalk up into the land of the giant.
Jack is a sparky, brave principal boy who falls in love with a beautiful princess whom he has to save from the clutches of the soul-loving giant and his nasty henchman Slimeball, gaining some riches along the way. Jack’s mother Dame Trot and his milkman Simple Simon help him in his task along with Edena the Eco Fairy and a great ensemble.

Discover the history of the granite rocks and many intrusions and fault lines which cut through the bay. Experience the tectonic history of the Island and also a route followed by many Victorian and Edwardian tourists who came to the bay to be impressed by the wildness of the nature to be found there. The beach is always changing and sometimes there are deep pools to get into the caves so sandals (no flip flops), neoprene shoes or trainers that can get wet are essential. This two hour geowalk will also include a walk over the headland now saved for the Island by the National Trust for Jersey.
This geowalk starts next to the bus stop in the top carpark at Plémont.

There’s just one dream for the women of Ballygar to get a taste of freedom in 1967: to win a pilgrimage to the sacred French town of Lourdes. However, for close friends Lily (Maggie Smith in her final film role), Eileen (Kathy Bates) and Dolly (Agnes O’Casey) their trip means more than just the chance to escape their everyday lives. A story of friendship, hope and forgiveness, this wryly funny and touching film is sure to bring some warmth to your January afternoon.
Don’t forget, Monday Matinee movie tickets also include a free cup of tea or coffee (and biscuits!) after the film!

When fate brings together Belfast teacher JJ and self-confessed ‘lowlifes’ Naoise and Liam Og, the needle drops on a hip-hop act like no other. Rapping in their native Irish, they lead a movement to save their mother tongue, overcoming police, paramilitaries and politicians along the way. Kneecap was the first Irish-language film to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival.

A story of friendship, hope and forgiveness, this wryly funny and touching film is sure to bring some warmth to your January afternoon.
Don’t forget, Monday Matinee movie tickets also include a free cup of tea or coffee (and biscuits!) after the film!

When fate brings together Belfast teacher JJ and self-confessed ‘lowlifes’ Naoise and Liam Og, the needle drops on a hip-hop act like no other. Rapping in their native Irish, they lead a movement to save their mother tongue, overcoming police, paramilitaries and politicians along the way. Kneecap was the first Irish-language film to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival.
his 20-metre long replica Longhouse was built over two years by volunteers, with oversight from Ancient Technology expert Luke Winter. Since it was officially opened in 2019, volunteers have performed day-to-day maintenance tasks using authentic techniques and tools, and act as guides, demonstrators and interpreters to explain the project to visitors. They are also continually researching, experimenting and training to acquire more Stone Age skills to share, including basket-making and flintknapping.
Every Tuesday, a member of the volunteer team lights a fire in the Longhouse using authentic techniques. This adds warmth to the building but also stops any insect infestation in the traditional straw roof. During your visit, the volunteer will also talk about the traditional methods used and the lessons learned during the build.
If speaking to a Longhouse volunteer is going to be the highlight of your trip to La Hougue Bie, please call +44 (0) 1534 853 823 before you visit to check they are confirmed for that date.

Jersey is a special Island. It is tiny – a small dot on the world map. But its size belies the breadth of its unique and varied heritage. This NEW free exhibition explores what makes us Jersey.
The Island has been a home, a haven, a paradise, a battleground, a prison. It has been a place of dreams and disasters, of connection and isolation, of vulnerability and strength, of unique creatures and ancient landscapes, of pioneers and tradition.
Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, four million people have been part of its history.
This exhibition celebrates some of our Island’s most significant moments and discovers how living here has affected the lives of just a few of those four million. Using our most special objects as witnesses to our past, it explores how we have come to be an Island and Islanders.
Prehistoric mammoth skulls and dwarf red deer bones tell the story of becoming an island; gold torques and ancient coin hoards explore the theme of Jersey as a sacred island; royal charters describe the Island as separate and different. During the Battle of Jersey and the Occupation, the Island was a place of conflict. At other times, Jersey was a place of refuge. Islands are also a little bit exotic and Jersey has attracted artists, honeymooners and holidaymakers. In this new exhibition, discover stories of our Island and explore what it means to be Jersey.
Forty talented photographers from Jersey and Guernsey have contributed to this wonderful exhibition, which is the first to take place in our new museum space at Hamptonne.
More than 200 images, printed on banners, capture the incredibly rich biodiversity we have in the Channel Islands – from birds, insects and mammals, to wildflowers, fungi and sea life, with a focus particularly upon Jersey.

The world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered in Jersey, this exhibition explores why people might have buried it there.
In 2012 the world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered buried in a field in Jersey. This exhibition explores what might have led people to bury a hoard of 70,000 coins and jewellery in Jersey, 2000 years ago and looks closely at some of the items found within the hoard.
Explore the time when Roman armies marched through Europe, 2000 years ago, they left behind them a trail of death and destruction which almost wiped out the culture and civilization of the Celtic people who lived there. Using scientific and archaeological research we can learn more about the people that buried the hoard, about their lives and customs. Ground-breaking research can tell us more about the moment and the place the hoard was buried. It might even challenge some long-held ideas about why hoards were buried.

All levels of experience welcome—just bring along your sense of humour and an eagerness to play!
Whether you’re a seasoned performer or a complete beginner, this introduction to clowning will give you a crash-course in some of the basics of physical comedy, improvisation, and the joyful art of making people laugh. Through games, exercises, and group work, we’ll explore some of the core principles of clowning: embracing vulnerability, finding humor in everyday moments, and discovering the freedom that comes with being silly. Get ready to laugh, take risks, and connect with others in a fun, supportive environment.
Optional (but strongly encouraged): Any colourful and/or fabulous headwear, hats or accessories that you have lying around at home!
The workshop is led by Henry Lambert and Christina Holmbek, who work together as clown double-act extraordinaire, Holy Smokes. The workshop is part of their Jersey residency during which they continue to develop HÔLY-PÔLY, their brand new theatre show, supported by a Development Grant from ArtHouse Jersey.
Saturday 18 January, 10am to 1pm at ArtHouse Jersey’s HQ at Greve de Lecq Barracks.

Explore the time when Roman armies marched through Europe, 2000 years ago, they left behind them a trail of death and destruction which almost wiped out the culture and civilization of the Celtic people who lived there. Using scientific and archaeological research we can learn more about the people that buried the hoard, about their lives and customs. Ground-breaking research can tell us more about the moment and the place the hoard was buried. It might even challenge some long-held ideas about why hoards were buried.

Ben Crocker has become known for his modern, fast-paced pantomimes full of family fun, and Jack and the Beanstalk is no different.
With toe-tapping music, lots of fun and the usual corny jokes, this pantomime follows the original fairy story as we see Jack sell Daisy the Cow for beans which grow into a magical beanstalk up into the land of the giant.
Jack is a sparky, brave principal boy who falls in love with a beautiful princess whom he has to save from the clutches of the soul-loving giant and his nasty henchman Slimeball, gaining some riches along the way. Jack’s mother Dame Trot and his milkman Simple Simon help him in his task along with Edena the Eco Fairy and a great ensemble.

Jersey is a special Island. It is tiny – a small dot on the world map. But its size belies the breadth of its unique and varied heritage. This NEW free exhibition explores what makes us Jersey.
The Island has been a home, a haven, a paradise, a battleground, a prison. It has been a place of dreams and disasters, of connection and isolation, of vulnerability and strength, of unique creatures and ancient landscapes, of pioneers and tradition.
Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, four million people have been part of its history.
This exhibition celebrates some of our Island’s most significant moments and discovers how living here has affected the lives of just a few of those four million. Using our most special objects as witnesses to our past, it explores how we have come to be an Island and Islanders.
Prehistoric mammoth skulls and dwarf red deer bones tell the story of becoming an island; gold torques and ancient coin hoards explore the theme of Jersey as a sacred island; royal charters describe the Island as separate and different. During the Battle of Jersey and the Occupation, the Island was a place of conflict. At other times, Jersey was a place of refuge. Islands are also a little bit exotic and Jersey has attracted artists, honeymooners and holidaymakers. In this new exhibition, discover stories of our Island and explore what it means to be Jersey.
Forty talented photographers from Jersey and Guernsey have contributed to this wonderful exhibition, which is the first to take place in our new museum space at Hamptonne.
More than 200 images, printed on banners, capture the incredibly rich biodiversity we have in the Channel Islands – from birds, insects and mammals, to wildflowers, fungi and sea life, with a focus particularly upon Jersey.
his 20-metre long replica Longhouse was built over two years by volunteers, with oversight from Ancient Technology expert Luke Winter. Since it was officially opened in 2019, volunteers have performed day-to-day maintenance tasks using authentic techniques and tools, and act as guides, demonstrators and interpreters to explain the project to visitors. They are also continually researching, experimenting and training to acquire more Stone Age skills to share, including basket-making and flintknapping.
Every Tuesday, a member of the volunteer team lights a fire in the Longhouse using authentic techniques. This adds warmth to the building but also stops any insect infestation in the traditional straw roof. During your visit, the volunteer will also talk about the traditional methods used and the lessons learned during the build.

The world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered in Jersey, this exhibition explores why people might have buried it there.
In 2012 the world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered buried in a field in Jersey. This exhibition explores what might have led people to bury a hoard of 70,000 coins and jewellery in Jersey, 2000 years ago and looks closely at some of the items found within the hoard.
Explore the time when Roman armies marched through Europe, 2000 years ago, they left behind them a trail of death and destruction which almost wiped out the culture and civilization of the Celtic people who lived there. Using scientific and archaeological research we can learn more about the people that buried the hoard, about their lives and customs. Ground-breaking research can tell us more about the moment and the place the hoard was buried. It might even challenge some long-held ideas about why hoards were buried.

Following the cancellation of the previous Lullaby Choir event due to Storm Darragh, we are excited to announce that the Lullaby Choir will be holding their second concert on January 25th, from 6 to 7 PM, at St. Mary’s Church.
An evening featuring a special choir formed for this 13-week project, with original and traditional lullabies and the stories behind them, showcasing the creativity and generosity of community members who have come together to bring these unique songs to life.
Over the past two years, The Lullaby Project has been crafting a portrait of Jersey through collecting the lullabies sung to its children. Musicians Beth Allen, Janet Swan, Carol Donaldson, Thabo Mkwananzi, Katie Rose Bennett, and Esther Rose Parkes were commissioned in the spring this year to work with the collection of over 60 lullabies to create choir arrangements for the Lullaby Choir. This commissioning process resulted in 14 choir pieces. The next phase involved recruiting members for the lullaby choir, with rehearsals starting at the beginning of September.
These concerts are the culmination of 12 weeks of learning and rehearsing original and traditional lullabies especially arranged for the Lullaby Choir. The Lullaby Choir will be performing lullabies in Urdu, Dutch, Māori, and English.
Led by Esther Rose Parkes, with fellow artist Susanne Kudielka, the Lullaby Choir is a unique mix of individuals with varying levels of experience in singing united by a shared passion for lullabies and singing.
The Lullaby Project is curated and produced by artists Esther Rose Parkes and Susanne Kudielka with The Moving Arts Collective and co-commissioned by ArtHouse Jersey. It has received support from The One Foundation, Jersey Community Foundation with funds from the Channel Islands Lottery and a Connect Me Government Grant.
Join Music in Action for an evening of classics on Saturday, 25th January 2025, where the Jersey Chamber Orchestra presents a programme featuring the legendary violin soloist Boris Brovtsyn, under Eamonn Dougan’s baton, JCO’s Chief Conductor.
The concert begins with Mozart’s dynamic Overture of ”La Clemenza di Tito”. One of Mozart’s final works, this overture sets the stage with elegance and drama, drawing listeners into the brilliance of the classical era.
Medical procedures are done with panache: “Bang and the wound is gone” (along with most of the patients), but the surgeons look impressive and that’s what matters…

Over the past two years, The Lullaby Project has been crafting a portrait of Jersey through collecting the lullabies sung to its children. Musicians Beth Allen, Janet Swan, Carol Donaldson, Thabo Mkwananzi, Katie Rose Bennett, and Esther Rose Parkes were commissioned in the spring this year to work with the collection of over 60 lullabies to create choir arrangements for the Lullaby Choir. This commissioning process resulted in 14 choir pieces. The next phase involved recruiting members for the lullaby choir, with rehearsals starting at the beginning of September.
These concerts are the culmination of 12 weeks of learning and rehearsing original and traditional lullabies especially arranged for the Lullaby Choir. The Lullaby Choir will be performing lullabies in Urdu, Dutch, Māori, and English.
Led by Esther Rose Parkes, with fellow artist Susanne Kudielka, the Lullaby Choir is a unique mix of individuals with varying levels of experience in singing united by a shared passion for lullabies and singing.
The Lullaby Project is curated and produced by artists Esther Rose Parkes and Susanne Kudielka with The Moving Arts Collective and co-commissioned by ArtHouse Jersey. It has received support from The One Foundation, Jersey Community Foundation with funds from the Channel Islands Lottery and a Connect Me Government Grant.
Join Music in Action for an evening of classics on Saturday, 25th January 2025, where the Jersey Chamber Orchestra presents a programme featuring the legendary violin soloist Boris Brovtsyn, under Eamonn Dougan’s baton, JCO’s Chief Conductor.
The concert begins with Mozart’s dynamic Overture of ”La Clemenza di Tito”. One of Mozart’s final works, this overture sets the stage with elegance and drama, drawing listeners into the brilliance of the classical era.
Medical procedures are done with panache: “Bang and the wound is gone” (along with most of the patients), but the surgeons look impressive and that’s what matters…

Join Jersey War Tours and visit WW2 bunkers, which are not usually open to the public. JWT will show you how Jersey was made into an impregnable fortress and help you appreciate what the Third Reich was able to create with slave labour.
The tour is also a perfect complement to understanding the history of the D-Day invasion, which took place less than 30 miles away.

Forty talented photographers from Jersey and Guernsey have contributed to this wonderful exhibition, which is the first to take place in our new museum space at Hamptonne.
More than 200 images, printed on banners, capture the incredibly rich biodiversity we have in the Channel Islands – from birds, insects and mammals, to wildflowers, fungi and sea life, with a focus particularly upon Jersey.
Jersey is a special Island. It is tiny – a small dot on the world map. But its size belies the breadth of its unique and varied heritage. This NEW free exhibition explores what makes us Jersey.
The Island has been a home, a haven, a paradise, a battleground, a prison. It has been a place of dreams and disasters, of connection and isolation, of vulnerability and strength, of unique creatures and ancient landscapes, of pioneers and tradition.
Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, four million people have been part of its history.
This exhibition celebrates some of our Island’s most significant moments and discovers how living here has affected the lives of just a few of those four million. Using our most special objects as witnesses to our past, it explores how we have come to be an Island and Islanders.
Prehistoric mammoth skulls and dwarf red deer bones tell the story of becoming an island; gold torques and ancient coin hoards explore the theme of Jersey as a sacred island; royal charters describe the Island as separate and different. During the Battle of Jersey and the Occupation, the Island was a place of conflict. At other times, Jersey was a place of refuge. Islands are also a little bit exotic and Jersey has attracted artists, honeymooners and holidaymakers. In this new exhibition, discover stories of our Island and explore what it means to be Jersey.

Each year, on the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz concentration camp, this Jersey ceremony provides an opportunity for remembrance and reflection. Learning from the atrocities of the Holocaust and subsequent genocides, this day allows us to continue to challenge hatred and persecution in the 21st century, ensuring a safer, better, future for us all. Members of Jersey Arts Centre’s youtheatre have once again been invited to read at this year’s ceremony.
See Jersey’s military heritage in a new light and help support a non-profit organisation! Evening tours of bunkers offer an unforgettable atmosphere when exploring. We will visit sites not open to the public and places not visited by commercial tours. Become a temporary team member and see how Jersey became an impregnable fortress!
German-occupied Poland, the summer of 1943. Hedwig, a house-proud mother of five, has worked hard to create a slice of paradise in which to raise her children. If only her husband, the distinguished SS Officer and Auschwitz commander Rudolf Hoss, wasn’t so busy working all the time at the camp next door…
This critically acclaimed drama won two Academy Awards in 2024, and is loosely based on the 2014 Martin Amis novel of the same name. A must see!

The world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered in Jersey, this exhibition explores why people might have buried it there.
In 2012 the world’s largest Celtic hoard was discovered buried in a field in Jersey. This exhibition explores what might have led people to bury a hoard of 70,000 coins and jewellery in Jersey, 2000 years ago and looks closely at some of the items found within the hoard.
Explore the time when Roman armies marched through Europe, 2000 years ago, they left behind them a trail of death and destruction which almost wiped out the culture and civilization of the Celtic people who lived there. Using scientific and archaeological research we can learn more about the people that buried the hoard, about their lives and customs. Ground-breaking research can tell us more about the moment and the place the hoard was buried. It might even challenge some long-held ideas about why hoards were buried.
his 20-metre long replica Longhouse was built over two years by volunteers, with oversight from Ancient Technology expert Luke Winter. Since it was officially opened in 2019, volunteers have performed day-to-day maintenance tasks using authentic techniques and tools, and act as guides, demonstrators and interpreters to explain the project to visitors. They are also continually researching, experimenting and training to acquire more Stone Age skills to share, including basket-making and flintknapping.
Every Tuesday, a member of the volunteer team lights a fire in the Longhouse using authentic techniques. This adds warmth to the building but also stops any insect infestation in the traditional straw roof. During your visit, the volunteer will also talk about the traditional methods used and the lessons learned during the build.
If speaking to a Longhouse volunteer is going to be the highlight of your trip to La Hougue Bie, please call +44 (0) 1534 853 823 before you visit to check they are confirmed for that date.

More stand up than dance around, WATCH IT! asks questions about identity, personal truth and political ideology in a ridiculous Game Show for One.
Wendy Houstoun has been performing since 1980, and began her career as a dancer with DV8 Physical Theatre, Nigel Charnock and Forced Entertainment. In quite possibly her last ever show Wendy Houstoun teams up with Kate Champion (Australia) and Hannes Langolf (UK, Germany) to create a personal and irreverent solo.
What happens to the individual in the midst of ideological regulation?
Is it possible to ask questions without being cast as a reactionary? Is self-censorship driving thought underground? Secrecy, privacy and the public domain are all on the table in a show that combines projection, spoken word and idiosyncratic movement.
