3 - 24 OCTOBER 2009
TRINITY CENTRE BRISTOL
Enter the Compass den of desire, a world of libidinous lovin’,romantic encounters, sordid, sexy, beautiful and beastly! We explore our theme through the rose-tinted corridors of nostalgia, up the dizzy heights of aspiration, plummeting finally to the murky underbelly of the dark sides of impulse and desire. Through a series of encounters, performances and film screenings artists, magicians, performers and academics will come together.
Using the directional points of the compass to navigate our way across the globe, the programme will take us from a sexy French burlesque cabaret to the island of Cuba, then to the seedy depths of an American speakeasy, before arriving in the country of Lebanon. Come, join the fun,
and taste the treats within!
