BraveNewWorlds and Ovalhouse present Trinity as part of Ovalhouse’s Summer Season 2017
Ovalhouse, together with BraveNewWorlds presents TRINITY – a visually stunning, design-led performance staged in a derelict gothic chapel in Peckham’s Asylum on Monday 19th – Thursday 22th, Monday 26th, Tuesday 27th June.
Transporting audiences to another world, this offsite event explores the aesthetics of gender and female iconography in society’s visual culture, from pagan and religious artefacts to pop culture’s bedroom selfies. TRINITY questions the ethics and politics involved in the representation, mutation and transformation of the female form in our collective visual consciousness. Creating a highly visceral visual landscape with an immersive sound experience that explores otherness, this production features sound by Demetrio Castellucci and light by Darren Johnston. By continuing to present challenging and inspirational theatre that speaks to a world beyond the mainstream, Ovalhouse acts as a vital home for boundary-pushing art, artists and audiences with an eye on the future.
Performance dates Monday 19th June – Thursday 22nd June, Monday 26th June and Tuesday 27th June, 7.30pm at Asylum, Caroline Garden’s Chapel, London SE15 2SQ. The nearest station is Queens Road Peckham station.
Project is supported by: Lithuanian Culture Council, Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Lithuania, Arts Council England

BraveNewWorlds
BraveNewWorlds create design-led performances, where the narrative, movement and moments on stage are instigated by an aesthetic concept or visual theme. The company’s work and its unique practice has been developed through Barbican Creative Learning and is the result of the Barbican’s Open Lab programme. The company’s first show was part of the official selection at the prestigious Prague Quadrennial for Performance Design and Space 2015 and has been exhibited at galleries and performance spaces across the UK and Europe. TRINITY is the company’s second show. It was developed at Arts Printing House Vilnius, Lithuania with the support of the Lithuanian Council for Culture and Arts Council England. The performance has been selected for Scenofest as part of the World Stage Design Festival in Taipei this summer.
