Talking Props Productions Presents EAST At Greenwich Playhouse September 22-October 4

Talking Props Productions presents Steven Berkoff's East, Directed by Adrian Figueroa
"Oh Sylv, it was thee, yes thy gentle voice did sway me finally to deal out pain"

A backdrop of 1950's East End London, the lives of five cockney souls and a concoction of love, sex and violence. An explosion of cockney rhyming slang meets classical Shakespeare. A turbulent revolt of movement, physicality, characterisation and raw theatre.

"A scream or a shout of pain. It is revolt. ...East could be the east side of any city where the unveneered blast off at each other in their own compounded argot as if the ordinary language of polite communication was as dead as the people who uttered it" Steven Berkoff

Brought to you by Talking Props Productions, presenting their debut performance following outstanding academic success. Formed in their third and final year, Talking Props represents a collaboration of raw performers in their exploration of expressive physical theatre. A young, authentic East London Cast, returning Berkoff's masterpiece back to its origins.
"Tell how it chanced that we sworn mates were once the deadly poison of each other's eye"
