We See Fireworks 24th June 2009

Arnolfini's former Producer and now Director of In Bewteen Time Productions, Helen Cole has been collecting memories of remarkable performances for a year. We See Fireworks is the beginning of that collection derived from the personal stories of a growing group of international thinkers, artists, writers and audience members. Each audience member was invited in alone to experience a single story. After this short, one-on-one performance, they were taken to another space to add their own memory:

“Think about a performative moment in your life. It can be a ‘proper’ theatre show or a personal encounter, a fleeting glance at a passerby or a story unfolding before you. You choose and describe it to us in your own words. Eventually your voice will join a vast online collection, becoming the material for a changing, touring installation that whispers from the walls of the spaces that we visit.”  Helen Cole.
