A theatrical performance commemorating the 20th anniversary of a the Argyle Street squatter eviction in Norwich is being performed in the city this week.
The Street of Experience, written by Al Stokes with songs by Nick Morgan and arranged by Seb Fosdal, is being staged at The Garage, in Chapelfield North, from Thursday February 17 to Saturday February 19.
Multi-media elements of the show take the form of projected still images – original material produced during the life of the squat – and projected
onto a back screen as actors perform bullet-point moments of street's history in sketch form. There will also be a performance by the band Dreadhead.
Tickets are £7 (concs £6) from the Theatre Royal box office on 01603 630000. School parties (over the age of 11) will be offered a negotiated rate subject to seating and availability. Doors 7.30pm, performance 8pm (no late entries, running time approx 90 minutes).
Al Stokes is a Norwich-based actor/director who appeared most notably in Chris Cunningham's award winning music video for the Aphex Twin's Come To Daddy single, and also in Danny Boyle's 2002 feature film 28 Days Later.
