Podcast: Devising all the way from America to The Space

Halfpace Theatre discuss their new show Transit

This week we were joined by Megan Brewer and Mikko Juan, Artistic Directors of Halfpace Theatre Company. The pair are about to bring their new devised show Transit to The Space.

Drawn from the lived experience of marginalised artists, Transit explores cycles of violence and the toxic systems that push our communities to the margins. Dynamic, migrant-led company Halfpace Theatre comes out swinging with this devised physical theatre piece, asking how we keep ourselves alive in a world that does not want us and how far we have to go to reshape it into one that does. 

We discuss the show, ask what devised theatre actually is, how you pitch a show with no script and why two Americans have come all the way to the UK to get involved with London’s Fringe Theatre scene.

Transit plays at The Space from 28 Nov – 2 Dec, and will also be available to livestream on 2 December then available on-demand for two weeks. More information and bookings can be found ⁠here⁠.
