    "Banality, the basic matter of our everyday lives – the breakfast parties, the arguments with our children, the shops on our streets, the political anxieties, the houses we've lived in for years, the cemeteries in which we'll end – is transformed and transcended ... Those lives we were glimpsing? They were our lives. Those parties and arguments and anxieties and houses are ours ... that is what Shah shows us, and that is the gift she offers us. Don't be frightened of life, she reminds us. It's all we have."

    ‘________ Happens’ - Glorious Making Week, September 2009

    in

    Over the last week of September 2009, Rajni Shah Theatre gathered together a group of artists, makers, technicians and producers in Lancaster, hosted by Alice Booth and the Nuffield Theatre, to _________  towards the new production, Glorious.  Glorious is the third part in a trio of productions that began with Mr Quiver (2005) and Dinner with America (2008), which share a common thread of identity, biography and body.  There is no simple route between the pieces – that thread is sometimes frayed, woven or multiple – and each production also stands alone.
