[UK]
WORLD PREMIERE OF A NEW DURATIONAL WORK BY QUARANTINE, IN CO-PRODUCTION WITH TRANSFORM

Due to the sell out success of ’12 Last Songs’, extra tickets have gone on sale for admission from 7pm onwards. Audiences with this ticket can come and go as they please from 7pm with last entry at 11pm.

Nice to meet you, what do you do?

12 Last Songs’ is about work.

Making a living. Finding your passion. Watching the clock.

12 Last Songs’ constructs a fleeting portrait of society. There are no actors. It’s a live exhibition of people, an epic performance that casts the steady rhythms of life on a carnival scale.

Over the course of a day, workers will do shifts. A bricklayer might build a wall, a hairdresser might cut someone’s hair, a chef might prepare a meal…

This extraordinary production, created with the people of Leeds, is the latest work by Manchester-based ensemble Quarantine, known around the world for their forensic interest in daily life.
