Part of FLARE15, the International Festival of New Theatre: Ashley Williams (UK) presents ‘The Circulation Game’ and Leentje Van de Cruys and University of Salford (BE/UK) present ‘Whoaaa Steady!’

The Circulation Game The Circulation Game is a solo performance that uses digital storytelling devices to ‘illustrate’ its meaning. The piece narrates a journey through a young man's mind, capturing the problems faced by his now lost generation, from Indiana Jones to the meaning of existence and back again.

Ashley Williams is solo performance theatre maker, recently graduated from the University of Chichester. His work focuses on contemporary performance practice, electro-acoustic composition and new-media technologies in and for performance.

Whoaaa Steady! The British are weird. Take, for example, the racecourse: an intriguing world full of unexpected characters: 'enthusiasts, horseys, addicts, anoraks, socials, pair-bonders, suits and be-seens'.

Inspired by anthropologist Kate Fox's book 'The Racing Tribe', Whoaaa Steady! watches the horse-watchers. A show about horses, humans and... well, being British (and weird). Giddy-up!

Belgian actress and theatre-maker Leentje Van de Cruys has been making quirky solo performances about domesticity and women’s identity for the last 8 years. She also performs and tours with Quarantine, Reckless Sleepers and Proto-type Theater, and lecturers at MMU and Lancaster University.
