Property and Theft

What is PROPERTY&THEFT?

A deserted supermarket. An unqualified debt counsellor. A tragic street vendor. A suspicious security guard. Property and Theft is a satirical, thoughtful and entertaining performance based around conversations with you, the audience. Exploring life, economics and poetry in a decaying capitalist society, this project performed at Tollcross Community Centre, Edinburgh (March 2011) and The Glue Factory, Glasgow (May 2011). It combined research from performances at Scratch Interact, Soho Theatre, London (April 2010); the streets of Essex (June 2010); and the Forest Fringe, Edinburgh (August 2010).

If you’re interested in the shows, you can read a blog reflection or two and view a photo gallery from the Edinburgh and Glasgow performances.
