Under Glass - Bouge de la - BAC

Bouge-de-la is a fairly young company. Several well-known people worked together on this latest project, Under Glass, amongst them Andrew Dawson, currently directing Wallace and Grommit Alive on Stage. After selling out at the premiere in the British Festival of Visual and Devised Theatre, their award-winning creation returns to BAC. And guess what! Felix has three sets of two tickets up for grabs in the competition announced at the end of this article, so read on.

The speciality of Bouge-de-la is the so-called design led theatre. In other words, a whole host of surprises await the audience, from people disappearing through sofas to emerge from cupboards to flowers growing through the walls.

The set perfectly complements the story of a young woman neglected by society, desperately trying to come to terms with the real world. She starts to create her own fantasy world, dreaming about a beautiful dress, a man living close by, the high-life in general. It is the only way she can escape from her mundane and lonely routine.
