Park is a devised video collage of what it means to express joy and tension in public spaces. With limitless play, we explore themes of emotional landscapes, release and surveillance through the conventions of a park: an open space with architecture to play on. It features a mother who’s lost her child, a park-goer looking for a friend’s wallet, and an alien finding a new philosophy. 

Presented by Exponential Festival and The National Black Theatre
