Everything is for sale… Everything has a price.


*** CALL FOR ARTISTS ***



TheatreDelicatessen are looking for new and up-and-coming theatre artists to help create the pop-up theatre event of the year.

From 14 September to 10 October 2010, theatredelicatessen will be throwing open the doors of their latest theatre-squat in the heart of the West End, to create Theatre Souk – a place where everything is for sale, and everything has a price.

To make this happen, theatredelicatessen are looking for artists of all kinds to take up residence and barter their performance wares to an art hungry mob. You’ll be given a room rent-free, a small design budget and complete creative freedom to explore ideas of money, business and commerce.

The idea is to create a theatrical market place, with companies and artists creating performances throughout the four-storey building. From the toilets to the store cupboard the audience will be confronted with noise, mystery and a continuous shock to the system as each door opens to reveal something entirely unexpected inside.

TheatreDelicatessen will be holding an open day on Saturday 17 April 2010 from 11am until 4pm, where companies will be able to come, explore the building, learn more about the project and discuss ideas.

If you are interested in being involved, please drop us a line at jessica@theatredelicatessen.co.uk, with an introduction about yourselves and what you might like to do. We will then be able to give you a slot on Saturday 10 April 2010 when you can see the space.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Mercury Fur Review – 5 Stars – Remote Goat

Remotegoat Review of Mercury Fur

"Very little in London's recent theatrical landscape has resonated with quite the amount of sheer intensity and lacerating emotional whirlwinds as theatredelicatessen's wholly original take on Philip Ridley's Mercury Fur...

"...It is testament to Frances Loy's direction and the skills of the impressive acting cast that a certain energy that other productions can only dream about is grabbed by the throat from the opening scene and only ratcheted up to almost unbearable levels as the performance progresses. Whilst none of the acting itself can be particularly faulted, Ben Wigzell's outstanding turn as the psychotically charismatic Spinx has to be noted for its undiluted power and absolute domination of the stage at all times. A seemingly rough but ready approach to the lighting and set design serves to effortlessly draw the audience into the skewed, turbulently young and incandescent world of the play through the space."
