It's going to be busy. 2014 was a big year - 2015 will be bigger, I think, in many ways. But for now this is just about what Third Angel is up to - in the first half of the year, anyway. We're touring four existing shows:
> The Life & Loves of a Nobody tours in the UK from January to May.
> The Paradise Project has its UK premiere at Warwick Arts Centre in February.
> What I Heard About the World tours to Brussels and the USA in January and March.
> Cape Wrath goes out on the road in the UK again in April.
and developing two more:
> Labour Intensive will premiere at The Birth Project symposium in Derby in April.
> and we're developing an expanded version of 600 People with astro-physicist Dr. Simon Goodwin.
I'll post updates about the new projects separately in the weeks to come, but scroll down for tour dates and booking links...

We'll also be undertaking education residencies in Leeds, Scarborough and Sheffield, as well as mentoring exciting new projects by our good friends Hannah Nicklin and Daniel Bye.

The Life & Loves of A Nobody
photo: Marcus Sarko
Rachel always wanted to be a star
Rachel wanted to run away with the circus
And have her name in lights
And escape from this house
And she dreamed of the future.
But people can be ugly. The closer they are the uglier they get. And there’s nobody closer to yourself than yourself.
Life is a juggling act. Love is a highwire. Try to do both at once, and it's a long way down. But even if the act goes wrong, you can still be famous for the fall.
"the visual payoff [is] sublime... It is well worth getting to know Rachel, whoever she is" The Guardian
"really beguiles... full of beautifully intimate moments that stick in the mind for long after the lights come up" Exeunt Magazine
After the success of the 2014 performances, The Life & Loves of a Nobody is out on the road for much of the first half of 2015. We hope you can join us:

The Paradise Project / Projeto Paraiso
A co-production with Teatro Maria Matos
& Warwick Arts Centre

Imagine a place better than where you are.
Every day they come in and try again. They try to figure out how to live together. They try to find a place to be. They start to build something that will never be completed - at least, not within their own life times.
And every day it works. Or it doesn't. Well, it depends how you measure it.
So today - today they will try something different.
The Paradise Project is full of wit, intelligence and humanity. Join Third Angel (Sheffield) & mala voadora (Lisbon) for a show about following instructions, inventing your own rules and keeping trying.
UK Premiere

striking, often brutal storytelling. Amazing." Fringe Biscuit
“this gorgeous piece of theatre...makes you think about the world, makes you laugh about the world, makes
you glad to be part of the world in all its madness.”
Total Theatre

“a reminder of the best and worst of human
