Here's a micro-documentary about the making of our new show.
It's inspired by the physical scraps of script of a famous play from Ancient Greece - otherwise completely lost to time.
What was the story?

ALT In an interior space, a woman with a big smile is holding up a glass slide in front of her face with her two hands. The slide displays two eyes that hide the woman's own eyes. The eyes are made of ancient papyrus and resemble the eyes of a crocodile.
Come join this wonderful lineup of artists and thinkers on Friday to muse on why a fragment can provide such a creative spark.
You can catch the discussion, have a bite to eat and then see the show. Friday sorted.
📢 Shadows and songs: the fragment as creative impulse. Panel discussion 5pm 12 May in @oxfordclassics' lecture theatre! A #papyrologist, a #puppeteer, & a #composer, comparing approaches to the #fragment & showcasing recent artistic work inspired by fragmentary Greek literature!
ALT Poster advertising the play Fragments by Laura Swift and Russell Blender, presented by Potential Difference theatre company. The image shows a woman from behind, holding a wood-axe, she stands on ancient Greek text written on a giant fragment of papyrus, she is lit from above by an oversized black angle-poise lamp.
Looking forward to our Y9 workshop @Cheney_School this afternoon ahead of Fragments playing @ArtsatOFS at the weekend.
We'll be talking about piecing together fragments of the past, the fragments we leave behind, and creating rich shadow landscapes from household rubbish!
We are thrilled to be bringing Fragments to @ArtsatOFS in beautiful Oxford this Friday and Saturday.
Friday is currently sold out and just a handful of tickets left for the Saturday shows so don't miss out.

ALT An older white man and a younger black woman lean over a high table desk carefully studying a small piece of papyrus. They are oblivious to a white woman who is sitting on top of the desk with her arms in the air cheering. She is barefoot, wearing drapey ancient looking clothes with golden bands on her arms and a gold necklace
We are looking for two people to join our wonderful board. Are you excited about innovative live performance with experience in:

ALT A white woman appears from the side against a black background. She is holding up a cardboard model of an ancient temple on a hill surrounded by trees. She shines a torch on the model casting a shadow of the temple on to a large white sheet off to the right of the image.
So thrilled that FRAGMENTS and our fantastic set designer @LucyHSierra have been nominated for an Offie.
Lucy's dusty 70s office is a whole extra character in the show - a giant playground of tricks and transformations. Come see it in action this week @PlaygroundW10
A big shout out also to the amazing puppetry of @jessmabeljones and @Lori_Hopkins which is such an integral part of the design. To @LyteSpryte who makes it shine. And to @estage and friends for realising Lucy's vision so beautifully.
When the ‘Out of Office’ is imminent for Early May Bank Holiday! Switch it on with us this week in celebration @PlaygroundW10 & be transported to ancient worlds! #FragmentsPlay
