Saturday's performance is followed by a post-show talk, 8.30 – 9pm
1,210km is an explosive new show that will inspire, question and provoke. Award winning young performance companies from Berlin and Glasgow explore ideas of cross-cultural identity, connection and belonging as they ask the question: ‘what is the space between us?’
This show has been created by young participants from Theater an der Parkaue and Glasgow's Junction 25, through a creative and cultural exchange over a number of months, and through digital technology.
They will only meet twice in the run-up to the show opening. The first time was for an intensive development weekend in February, and they will next come together in person for the final production week in August.
Tramway is delighted to host the premiere of 1,210km before it transfers to Berlin. The Glasgow performances are part of Festival 2018, the cultural programme for the Glasgow 2018 European Championships. It is without doubt one of the most daring collaborations taking place between the two cities as a result of Festival 2018.
