A Good Neighbour 

Invited by the Atlantic Project to respond to the theme of ‘a good neighbour’, Beyond Face has initiated a series of performances exploring the idea of ‘home’ and neighbourly relations in Plymouth. The performances of short monologues will take place at the B-bar on the Barbican. This event will also be accompanied by a discussion investigating some of the challenges of co-existence in Plymouth today and how important images can be in changing people’s perceptions both positively and negatively. Supported by Plymouth Culture and the Horizons Project. 

Performance date: Sunday 4th March 2018, B-Bar, Barbican Theatre
