Puppetry's Balkan bad-boys return with the sequel to end all sequels! Become enthralled as these two tatterdemalion rogues recount their tribulations in the underworld.

Tatterdemalion
Synopsis:
From the creators of Boris and Sergey comes a one man show featuring puppetry, physical comedy, and mime. In this hilarious, absurd and often magical show that juxtaposes themes of loneliness and belonging with joy and exhilaration we are invited to witness one man's quest for a friend. Pathos, dark humour and Victorian aesthetics combine to create a wonderful and mysterious backdrop to a poetic and surreal journey. 'Joyful, intelligent and downright funny.

Spread
Synopsis:
the three Exeter University graduates who call themselves Hourglass - Jenny Maynard. Andrea Turner and Suzie Lowe - have more than that to say about their subject, which is the relationship between women and food. For instance, they're well aware of the contemporary contradiction that insists that they cook and consume vet deny and diet: which is why they're to be found collectively hopping on to weighing machines, then reading magazine articles praising "decadent chocolate tart", or why one desperately crams herself into a tiny black dress, reminding herself that there's to be "no eating no~ just peeling labels off empty tins" - while another gorges herself on crisps.
