"Oh That This Too Too Solid Flesh...," London Metropolitan University, Great Britain, directed by Gian Carlo Rossi
"All that is solid melts into air..." as we witness the dissolution of narrative and character, seven compulsives that exist in and through the language of Shakespeare meet – or is it seek refuge – in Gdańsk.London Met's sixth visit to the festival will lead you from space to space, from light to dark, on an imaginative journey through the words and deeds of plays and sonnets. As Karen Carpenter and Nina Simone brush shoulders with William Shakespeare, join the fanatics down at the Królewska Fabryka Karabinów – "all the world's a stage..."
Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, Much Ado, A Midsummer Night (perhaps), As You Like It (or not)…and more (or less)...
The director: Gian Carlo RossiSenior Lecturer and Course Leader for Performing Arts at London Metropolitan University. He works as a lighting designer in contemporary dance and theatre. His research interest is in seeking to utilise the ‘language of space’ as means of investigating, analysing and creating performance practice, drawing on the work of cultural geographers, theorists, philosophers and architects who see spatial thinking as central to cultural discourse. In April 2007 he collaborated on Vertigo with Lucy Richardson, a devised theatre piece that took a spatial approach to exploring the lives of four women. This is his fourth visit to the festival as a director, having previously collaborated on Measure for Measure, Macbeth, A Midsummer Night’s Dream and More Than a Woman with Lucy Richardson.
London Metropolitan University
It was created in 2002 by the merger of London Guildhall University and the University of North London. Prior to the merger both institutions had long histories of providing quality education in the City and north and east London. This company consists of students graduating from the Bachelor of Arts in performing Arts at LMU. The course is recognized as one of the top five in the United Kingdom and is unique in the way that it explores the symbiotic relationship between performing arts theory and practice.
