Now 17 - Nebula / Out

Nebula
Marion Burge

We take up space, but can’t find home. Nebula is an exploration and a voyage conducted by an alien searching for familiar territory.

Nebula examines the liminality of being mixed race and blends it with the idea that we are all seeking to find our place and our space. By looking outward at the human fascination with the Universe and inward at the personal desire to find one’s tribe, the work aims to articulate what it means to belong.

This show was made with the support from Camden People’s Theatre and their Starting Blocks Programme.

Out
Rachael Young

Out is about shape shifting in a bid to fit in; to be black enough, straight enough, Jamaican enough…

Challenging homophobia and transphobia within Caribbean communities, Out is a conversation between two bodies, reclaiming dancehall and celebrating queerness amongst the bittersweet scent of oranges.

Embracing personal, political and cultural dissonance, this defiant act of self expression smashes through the silence, summoning voices and re-enacting movements in a chaotic mash-up of remembrance and reinvention.

Out is being created with kind support from The Yard, In Between Time, Arts Council England, Curve and South East Dance.
