Shock treatment in a story for little horrors

Article Abstract:

Cultural Industry's stage version of Heinrich Hoffmann's book 'Struwwelpeter,' entitled 'Shockheaded Peter,' is directed by Julian Crouch and Phelim McDermott. The directors focused on parents, rather than children, to create a structure to bind Hoffmann's tales together. They used a technique known as 'one word,' in which a group of people put together a story by each writing one word at a time, to produce the connecting narrative for 'Shockheaded Peter.' The play is set inside a Victorian theatre, with a master of ceremonies presenting what is basically a freak show.

Workaholics anonymous

Article Abstract:

Nigel Williams has written many screenplays and novels over the years, and has recently returned to the theatre with his play 'Harry and Me.' This has encouraged him to undertake further theatre projects, and he has also adapted 'The Last Romantics,' his own BBC drama, for the stage. He is a prolific writer, and has many more projects planned. He sees a lot of himself in his characters, but denies that his fiction is autobiographical.

You'll find the dead flowers on the first floor, madam

Article Abstract:

Leading London stores such as Emporio Armani, Harvey Nichols and Levi's are now paying artists to exhibit their work on the sales floor. There is a new focus on the work of young, conventional artists, moving away from expensive, fashionable names. Many people may not feel relaxed enough to contemplate art while they are shopping, but art does not necessarily have to lose its sense of adventure when it is in a shop.
