Ever wished that you were somewhere else? Ever wished that you were somebody else?

Escaping the rain, a journey on the London Underground becomes a descent into the underworld in this award-winning show.

Summoning a spirit guide in the form of ‘Body 115’, we follow our poet-hero down and out through the sewers and tubes of Kings Cross Station to the heart of Italy.

Part invocation, part rain dance, this poetic odyssey is delivered with a contemporary kick. From the terraces at Millwall to fashionable Milan expect shadowy encounters, iPhone selfies, dodgy connections and chance meetings with a host of poet ghosts.

Body 115 was the winner of the London Pub Theatre Awards for ‘Best Innovative Play’ 2023, and received an Offie Commendation, 2023.
