International Performance Festival Cardiff

Weds 18^th June, 7.30pm

Chapter Arts Centre

£5 on the door

The very first International Performance Festival Cardiff is currently in full swing at Chapter Arts Centre. Artists from around the world have been invited to the city to share their unique performance practice which responds to the communities in which they usually work.

In among the varied and exotic programme is theatre maker Josh Coates, who has come all the way from the farthest depths of Bolton to entertain you. Josh will be sharing his very first full-length, solo production:

Particles is an exploration of modern storytelling, in which Josh retells the various possibilities of a single tale. A man is faced with a decision, how will his choices affect his life? Each choice we face carries new hope and changes the person we become. As the possible outcomes grow and multiply the audience is encouraged to revel in the possibilities of love and chaos.

Josh describes his work as ‘conversational’. Putting the audience at the forefront of his work he wants to share an experience and generate a conversation. His charismatic personality and charming stage presence will make you feel as though you are sharing stories with an old friend.

Despite being an experienced theatre maker Josh has sadly never performed in his own hometown. Come along on Wednesday night and give him a warm Cardiff welcome to make him feel at home.
