'Kate Champion is riding the wave of a decade of brilliant work across theatre, opera and dance, notably with her celebrated company Force Majeure.Steve Rodgers is a theatrical marvel who writes and acts with equal aplomb. Their work meets here within the classic architecture of great drama: feuding sisters, a charming man and the possibility of transformation.

'A gun. A bath. A telephone. An island.

'Intimate and immersive, Land & Sea is a rich and intoxicating theatrical ‘strange loop’. Reality expands and contracts. Time and space are not what they seem as multiple fragments of the same story twist and tunnel into a kaleidoscopic world of wonder and absurdity. ' (Publisher's blurb)
