The Customer Is Always Wrong by Bill Aitchison

One of a kind artist, traveler and all round professional eccentric Bill Aitchison has been taking the citizenship test... in Southern China. Having performed his one-man show in Beijing, Shanghai and Xiamen, he returns to the UK with insights, dodgy translations and a lot of plastic. Performed in English and Mandarin.

Bitter Translation by Alexandre Ross - a stage reading directed by Christopher O'Donnel

Jennifer is the most beautiful and perfect girl in the world and for their anniversary, Tim has whisked his princess off to China for a romantic anniversary.

Is China really a romantic place for a pair of twenty-something Londers? Is 30 yuan a fair price for pride and revenge?

Written by a young new talent and based on his recent experience in Beijing, this dark comic play tells the story of an odd triangle – Jennifer, Tim and a ‘rickshaw-man’.

FOR HOW MUCH? (extracts) 

Choreography: Annarita Mazzilli Music: Andy Higgs 

Faceless ....distorted fingers reaching out to the skies... spinning coins on the ground... 

Is this the cost of the goods we buy and consume? Is this the cost we do not have to pay?

Originally commissioned by the International Organisation for Migration U.K. (IOM) as part of their Buy Responsibly campaign this dance theatre piece takes inspiration from the lives of the people who have worked under forced labour in India, Africa, South America and parts of Europe and from the sculptures by London-based artist May Ayres and her critique of consumerism and capitalism..
