The Lamentable Tragedy
A large scale site responsive promenade performance based on historical findings local to Stokes Croft, Bristol. Based in an old disused Motor Cycle Showroom, the resulting 12 performances allowed audiences of over 1800 to take part in this piece of non traditional theatre and for over 112 artists, performers and volunteers local to Stokes Croft to collaborate.
The Lamentable Tragedy received funding from Arts in Empty Spaces, Arts Council England, Bristol City Council Single Project Fund and 2QAB.
