Set first as a 'rave in a cave' festival at Kents Cavern, Devon, this production then toured to Pooles Cavern, Buxton and later re-imagined as a group of squatters protesting rising living costs, for two London productions, first at Above The Arts and then to Ugly Duck's warehouse “The Loft”.
With thanks to Ed Hartland for writing this new piece performed by Butterfly and to Oli Towse for his dramaturgy. Premiered at Above the Arts, off London's West End, followed by a Halloween-week run at The Other Palace Studio in Victoria, London.
