British Museum 'Performing the archive'
Symposium, performance and exhibition
Project: Clocks 1888: the greener
We were invited to host a symposium and exhibition in the Stevenson Lecture theatre to bring our diverse audiences togther with archivists, theatre venues and arts professionals. This was followed by an public event in the Clocks collection itself working with the curators from the Horology archive.
"a unique and hugely interesting exploration of the museum world can collide and feed into the creative arts"
