The Regretrospective (3 stars)

This listing is from a previous year.  Search for current listings.

A half-human, half-horse's brief bedsit encounter with a tiger. Set amongst films, animations and props, the piece looks at the implications of desire, regret, illusion, delusion and our inherent animal/human natures in a surreal and offbeat way.

Supported by Escalator East To Edinburgh and Colchester Arts Centre. Ages: 12+
