This Year Will Be Different

Synopsis:
a brand shiny new year! Will your dreams come true? Will your goals be met? Or will you be hiding under the duvet? Whatever 2012 may bring, start it off right by heading to theatre503 for our first-week-of-the-year extravaganza. This is new writing with a difference - we've paired playwrights with video artists, animators and illustrators and asked them to create short pieces of theatre that focus on visual storytelling. Based on texts, tweets and photos from members of the public, the resulting show explores just what our annual New Year rituals reveal - and what lies behind all those smiling Facebook pictures. . .
