From 13-19th October, a Victorian warehouse in Tower Bridge will play host to 3 theatre companies producing ambitious and challenging work.

Bad Host Theatre will present Swines, a satirical and immersive performance inspired by Britain’s talent show culture and the current eco-political climate. For Hotel Jackinthebox Productions have selected 3 secret plays which will be performed in adjacent rooms, colliding through the walls, and at the interval the audience members can choose what they will see next. A preview of Daddies don’t cry will be performed by Alight Theatre Company for one night only, which chronicles the separation of a family, set against a dramatic sculpture. And 47/49 will be running a free forum theatre workshop for actors and non actors, which will give participants the opportunity to re-enact and challenge moments of oppression.

On your marks - get set - go! Climb that ladder, reach for the stars, follow your dreams! You can be anything you want to be. Let Bad Host Entertainment* make it easy for you.

Swines is a satirical performance inspired by Britain's game show/talent show culture and the current eco-political climate. In a future not so difficult to imagine competition is entertainment, experience is irrelevant and if you don’t fit in the box you don’t stand a chance.

A playfully absurd performance which asks how much control we really have over our futures?

*(The bastard child of a British game show and hardcore bingo tournaments, mixed with some cheap biscuits and glitter for good measure.)

Swines is taking place at 47/49 Tanner Street during the same week as Jackinabox’s The Hotel. Double-bill tickets are available at a reduced rate.

Have you ever wondered who’s been in this room before?

Critically acclaimed and award winning theatre company Jackinabox Productions (Romeo & Juliet, Berlin) presents a new immersive experience unlike any other.

Once the greatest place to rest your head, The Hotel now plays lonely host to echoes of its own past. But as it opens its doors to the curious, you are invited to take a glimpse at the secrets hidden behind the abandoned walls. Venture beyond the 'do not disturb sign' and immerse yourself in The Hotel’s people and their stories in the most private and intimate of settings.

Each room houses a different anonymous show. Guests will be checked into a first room on arrival, and will then have an opportunity to choose a second room, another show and another world of possibilities.

Note: this is not an overnight experience.

"An unmissable gem of a production."
The New Current (Berlin)

The Hotel is taking place at 47/49 Tanner Street during the same week as Bad Host’s Swines. Double-bill tickets are available at a reduced rate.
