“Created with rigorous, poetic economy… England belongs to that wonderful genre of thoughtful plays that could be discussed for hours without exhausting its ideas.” —New York Times
The underground British hit at New York’s Under the Radar Festival, England is a site-specific performance that takes place at UVM’s Fleming Museum. The performance travels the trade routes of art and human beings on a tour through spaces and across borders; England is about an empire of a different kind. It’s the story of one thing placed inside another: a heart inside another person’s body, a culture inside another country’s culture, theater inside a gallery, a character inside an actor, a play inside its audience. Written and performed by Tim Crouch and Hannah Ringham, England is “absolutely fascinating and draws the audience into its stories even when they aren’t always entirely sure where they are being taken” (British Theatre Guide).
Presented in association with the Robert Hull Fleming Museum of the University of Vermont
