In a room anything can happen
An innovative theatre piece combining music, voices and dance, with a text by Caryl Churchill and music by Orlando Gough.
<i>Hotel</i> is in two parts:
In the first, <i>Eight Rooms</i>, fourteen people - tourists, couples and business people - spend an ordinary night in a hotel.
But they all occupy the same space, their stories overlapping and interweaving and creating an exhilarating collage of words, voices, music and choreographed movement.
In the second, a dance piece entitled <i>Two Nights</i>, we see two distinct nights happening at the same time.
Two people find different ways to disappear, while a diary found in another hotel room tells of one more extraordinary disappearance.
'Elusive, poetic, striking and substantial' - <i>The Times</i>
'Their pieces have the power to make you leave the theatre in an altered state' - <i>Observer</i>
