ABC Wednesday:
W is for Wheelhouse


The Wheelhouse is a narrative show which unfolds inside and around a circular set as it rolls, with the audience walking alongside.


It is described as being "A gently comic dystopia, set in a different time where everything has a new value and survival relies on sharp eyes, quick hands, and, above all, friendship. Stunning design, theatrical acrobatics, and breathtaking moments of risk, all housed within an exquisite, hand-built structure."


It was commissioned as a walkabout by Without Walls in 2008 and funded for development into a full show (2011) by Applause. With Direction from Flick Ferdinando.


This flagship show by Acrojou has been seen in 13 countries and arrived in Llandudno in September 2015 as part of the Llandudno Arts Weekend LLAWN03.


More of my photos from LLAWN03 can be found on Geograph.
