towers
Synopsis
Conflicting views on the development of a South London estate come to a head as developers, architects, researchers and residents clash in this new play created by the Company and Ameera Conrad.
Towers was developed over a period of 5 weeks as a devised piece with 15 actors in training at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Through research, improvisation, and writing groups, the production was facilitated from conceptualization to staging in a flat-leadership structure rehearsal room.
