I take a large splinter of glass and hold it up to the light. As I slide it into the skin of my hand I feel something. Something akin to the first time. The first job. This will get me into their room, into their lives for at least long enough to shatter it.
The Other Way Works invites you to unravel this original detective story, where even love can be bought for the price of a cocktail from the mini-bar.
Check-in at Hotel Reception, and journey along corridors and into bedrooms to piece together the clues: a glass of expensive red wine; a housekeeper gripped with inquisitive mania; a hotel receipt from New York; a couple drunk on lust and jet-lag; a sliver of shattered glass; a sleek executive waiting to be caught; a single spot of blood.
Black Tonic is an interactive performance, incorporating video, audio, and installations, as well as live performers.
Black Tonic is performed in the bedrooms and corridors of a central London Hotel.
Audience capacity is very limited, advance booking advised. Suitable for ages 16+
Commissioned and Co-Produced by CPT.
Project development supported by Arts Council England, Birmingham City Council and The Sir Barry Jackson Trust.
