Theatre Souk featured on Daily Telegraph culture blog
The Daily Telegraph came in to have a look around, and recorded this video blog of Roland Smith, one of Theatre Delicatessen's artistic directors, explaining the concept behind Theatre Souk:
The Daily Telegraph culture blog
The smallest space in the building, hidden between other performances and noise, hardly noticeable, there is an oasis for you. Find it if you can, and think about what you most desire in the next 10 years of your life. A bank from the underworld will become your most helpful banking. Inspired by works of a French Baroque painter Georges de la Tour.
MATADOR: The death knell is sounding for the last trader standing; come and see the Matador perform his swan song. A beautiful apology or an arrogant claim, the solo Matador stands proud in a crumbling arena, but there is still time to sell the bricks for scrap.
BULLPEN: Our modern civilisation should sit on the shoulders of economic brilliance. A wonderful ideal. In reality it is a stampede instigated by the selfish desire to be a winner. Come, play a game which gives you a taste of trading.
Choose your team and play out a grand match of chance and skill, to test your resolve in the dangerous world of the market. Two teams will battle it out to extract their last ounce of competitive spirit in the ring.
The participants will be trained by elite corporate players, pulled through their high life stories and exposed to their brutal attitudes. Are you game?
