Curated in collaboration with Ormside Projects, this event gathered performance ensembles, playwrights, musicians and DJs across our two spaces. Part one of the evening took place in LPS Studio 1, while part two crossed over into Ormside Projects, with further performances and DJs.

99 Plays by Alan Fielden with Clara Potter-Sweet, Nat Norland, and Jemima Yong

From April 8th, 2024, Alan Fielden wrote one play a day for 99 days, a decade after first undertaking the project in 2014. Written amidst global upheaval and early parenthood, the plays are by turns sleep-deprived, delirious, joyous, and formally experimental—often blurring into other literary forms. Joined by some of the most exciting theatre makers working today, Fielden will read from this collection, revisiting both recent and past works.
