A collaboration between Turner Prize-nominated visual artist David Shrigley, award winning composer David Fennessy, and Magnetic North’s Artistic Director Nicholas Bone, Pass The Spoon was a huge hit with critics and audiences during sell out runs at Tramway, the Traverse and the Southbank Centre in 2011 and 2012.
This film of the production was created during its run at the Southbank Centre as one of a series of live streamed events in the build up to the London Olympics.
Originally only available online for 1 year, this will be its first cinema-style screening.
This is a not-to-be-missed opportunity for fans of Shrigley, opera, and television cookery programmes, as well as anyone else who missed out on seeing the original stage production.
The screening will be followed by a question and answer session with the creative team, with David Shrigley joining remotely.
