Poet Andrea Brady chose 20 words when asked by Barry Edwards to provide a starting point for a new performance piece. Shiver is the result - and one of the original 20 words – ‘a fragment, chip, splinter: broken into small pieces’. Here’s two more. Intern – ‘the body as that place of mysterious and sudden ruptures and invasion, where the other – disease, loved object, container – is kept.’ Watch – ‘in the dark watches of the night: the vigilance of the tribe.’

What an amazing and thought provoking performance, I'm so glad I decided to go to this, as it has transformed the way I think about life.
Magnificent. Both my partner and I were extremely moved by the piece. As a poet myself I appreciated the effort that went into choosing the perfect 20 words, all of which were acted out faultlessly and accompanied by some profoundly affecting music. If you like gestural theatre, you'll love this.
