Nabokov Presents

Present : Tense / Ten



February 8th 2009

Show starts: 8pm


The toughest creative challenge in town. Some of the UK’s most exciting talent has one week to respond to the most important news story of the moment.

A group of playwrights, directors, film-makers, poets, musicians and more convenes to select the most momentous story on the news agenda. They each have seven days to create a piece of work that responds to the story they choose before it is performed for you the public - exactly one week after they began.

Recent Present : Tense events have featured playwrights April De Angelis and Nicholas Wright; comedian Mark Thomas and poet [verb]swish.
