Domini Public @ National Theatre Square

We are given headphones, a hundred of us, and asked questions mainly. From light and fluffy to hard and hurtful, can we, will we tell the truth right here in public will we? He asked things from had we taken photos of ourselves naked to had we been on a demonstration.

He incorporates information about Mozart, he was a Mason and wrote the magic flute for economic reasons, as Dostoevsky writing Crime and Punishment.

There is something quite special about live performance and questions, I love questions. As it moves on, we are separated by our birthplaces, and those who are from outside of London become prison officers, your uncomfortable with that, I am, I was. And we go through watching and taking part, in actions, in murders and in silent witness.

He ends the piece, with us all drawn into a small dark cinema space, listening to questions, repeated, and a visual document of a game. They end with all of our names on as credits. Clever. Very clear and interesting. They do these free bee previews, which help!
