WESTIVAL 2008
Table 23
Wed 23rd July 2008
Presented by Hot Tubs and Trampolines
Timmy Mallett once used the toilets of the mermaid cafe! But empty seats attract empty people, in a city where somebody is constantly searching for their someone. What is is to be lonely? What's behind the pasta promises and facebook facade? Window seat madam? Take table 23!
Table 23 is set in the humdrum yet monotone life of a back street Italian restaurant in London, and takes a look at the people passing through. Seen through the eyes of one lonely man, the lives of his fellow diners appear mesmerising and spectacular, a far cry from his own. But who can define loneliness? The stories are told through a mish mash of physical and visual work, incorporating elements of clowing, puppetry and acrobatics, fused with moments of truth, honesty and vulnerability.
