TURN YOUR F***ING PHONES OFF (WIP & Long Table)

Front Room Weston-Super-Mare, Weston-Super-Mare, BS23 1FF

Friday 12th June, 7:30pm

Join multi-award-winning theatremaker Hannah Maxwell for the very first public sharing of her new show, TURN YOUR F***ING PHONES OFF. A dark, absurd and fiercely hopeful exploration of human connection in the Information Age.

Weston-super-mare gets the first look at this thrilling and vital new work from one of the UK’s most exciting writer-performers, as voted for by audiences at last year's BABYFLEAREINDEERBAG (“delightfully meta” ★★★★ The Guardian).

Audiences will be invited to feedback on this work-in-progress performance, in development for premiere at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe. There will also be a free flowing discussion about infotech, social media and being human in an increasingly atomised and polarised world, using the “Long Table” discussion format developed by performance artist Lois Weaver.

TURN YOUR F***ING PHONES OFF

Former Gents Locker Room, Summerhall Arts, Edinburgh, EH9 1PL

Thursday 6th - Monday 31st August (not 17th or 24th)

3:40pm

Hi. Thanks for making time for whatever this is.
I suppose it’s a theatre show.
Perhaps it’s an interdisciplinary, interactive, mixed-media piece of performance art.
An ambitious, impactful & timely exploration of human connection in the Information Age.
A town hall meeting at the end of the world.
A karaoke booth in a nuclear bunker.
A clear-the-air chat
between you,
me
and the rest of our plane-of-existence-mates.


A thrilling and vital new work from the multi-award-winning theatremaker. As voted for audiences at BABYFLEAREINDEERBAG.
