THE GAS HEART / OX ON THE ROOF / THE MIRROR WARDROBE ONE FINE EVENING
Premiered Southern Ballet Theatre, February 1982
Production Credits

Picture
Under the name Scheisse Theatre, the company presented three plays by Dada and Surrealist artists. It was presented at the Southern Ballet Theatre in the Arts Centre.

"They are works originating in 1920s Paris with its post-war decadence, its profusion of experimental artists and its outpouring of anarchistic, anti-establishment statements. The production is the outcome of a Canterbury University holiday project in experimental theatre, run by Mr Peter Falkenberg, a lecturer in the German Department".
