Welcoming the Child – An installation of text and audio based on Hugo Ball’s ‘Simultaneous Nativity Play’ by New Free Theatre.

‘Welcoming the Child’ takes inspiration from Hugo Ball’s surrealist ‘Simultaneous Nativity Play’ in order to think through questions of textuality and performance in relation to the nativity play as a central although not-exactly-canonical feature of the landscape of western theatre.Visitors are welcome daily at any time from 17.00 – 21.00 and also for matinee performances on Sundays from 11.00 – 13.00, until December 23rd. St John on Bethnal Green, 200 Cambridge Heath Road, London, E2 9PA.
