Opal Fruits at the Bristol Old Vic is an 'entertaining hour'

For an hour-long show, Opal Fruits covers a lot of ground. In this busy show, you can expect music, dance and reflections on a wide-range of subjects.

The solo show by Holly Beasley-Garrigan is an exploration of working class culture - because that is how to get arts funding. Topics touched on range from housing and trauma to education and social mobility, among others.

One of the key themes looks at the link between art and working class culture. It talks about what it is like to be an artist who grew up poor and also what it is like to be part of two worlds while not feeling part of either, for example.
