The production

A devised piece built from interviews with night shift workers across East London, performed by five actors with live sound.

Devised in the room over four weeks. Sound is central to the piece and will keep changing until previews, so the operator needs to be comfortable with late changes.

Four weeks of daytime rehearsals in Hackney Wick.
