Interface

There is no through line or narrative as such, but rather a collection of situations.

Tackling gender stereotypes head-on Interface reassessed 'face values' and looked beneath the surface to find the truth about one another - and ourselves!

Each character revealed a surprise 'flip-side' and the final section of the show debunks stereotypes through each performer changing rapidly from one costume and character to another.

Louise Bryning (Lancaster Guardian) remarked that the show was full of "moving routines with large slices of pacey and humorous dance", "inventive choreography [and] wonderfully original music". Bill Harpe, writing for The Guardian described it as "a kaleidoscope of pure dance, physical theatre, dialogue and energising soundtrack". He warns that audiences should "expect painful human dilemmas to be explored in a positive way. Expect the unexpected. Expect to leave the theatre talking about issues. ... Ask yourself - how often do we get this kind of stimulus from adult theatre?" Bill Harpe for The Guardian February 1997

What we know about a person is the key to objectivity
What we don't know about a person is the seed of prejudice
