Skin Hunger

Restrictions in most of the UK have been eased, but Covid has changed our relationship to touch. In summer 2021, site-specific theatre experts Dante or Die explored the basic human need for intimacy in a one-to-one performance comprising monologues by Ann Akinjirin, Tim Crouch and Sonia Hughes and staged with a plastic sheet separating actor and audience. This 45-minute archive recording won’t give you a hug, like the live show did, but is a taste of the experience and something of a pandemic time capsule. Until 31 August.
