Artists and MA students in Theatre and Performance from York St John University, Lawrence Crawford and Kiran Tanna, perform a live response to the Peter Emil Madsen Collection.

In early 2014, the performers were set a commission to write and perform a new work in response to Madsen’s archive.

Through a creative process of responding to his objects, they weaved a series of imaginative ideas, fictional tales and autobiographical stories.

Lawrence and Kiran will share their lively and playful works in miniature. Dr Claire Hind will summarise the performances with a short talk on performance writing and commissions.

There will also be a visit to one or two other exhibitions (tbc).
