SUMMARY:The Front
LOCATION:Studio 1\, London Performance Studios\, Penarth Centre
DESCRIPTION:The Front is a new play by Sam Cottington\, exploring how histo
 ry feels\, rather than how it was.When Carol and Stephen meet\, they disco
 ver they aren’t like the others. What happens next is pretty extreme\, b
 ut then they are living through particularly extreme times. There is Belgi
 um\, the Western Front at the close of the First World War\, an isolated f
 arm house in Bavaria\, as the Second World War escalates\, and present day
  Berlin\, on the edge of the city. Unfortunately\, through it all\, they h
 ave each other. Carol and Stephen are just trying their best to live\, bec
 ause\, for reasons unclear to them\, they are unable to die.London Perform
 ance Studios presents the premiere of this first iteration of The Front. I
 t has been commissioned and produced by London Performance Studios as part
  of the Associate Artists Programme. AboutSam Cottington is an artist\, wr
 iter\, and theatremaker from London. Through interdisciplinary experiments
  in collage\, he often presents ‘reality’ as contradictory and mutable
 : the product of specific historical and social economies. The texture of 
 experience and the production and trajectory of the theatre\, the family\,
  and desiring subjectivities are recurrent in his practice\, often culmina
 ting in devised interventions which address their formal capacities. He is
  an Associate Artist at London Performance Studios. Recent exhibitions and
  performances have been presented at Kunsthalle Winterthur (2026)\; Sculpt
 ureCenter\, New York (2025)\; Louche Ops\, Berlin\, (2025)\; Nir Altman\, 
 Munich (2024)\; zaza’\, Milan (2023)\; and Ginny on Frederick\, London (
 2022). Phone Plays\, his first collection of plays\, was published by Mont
 ez Press in collaboration with London Performance Studios (2024). He is a 
 graduate of Monica Baer’s class at Städelschule\, Frankfurt (2025)\, an
 d Goldsmiths\, University of London.\n\nBoletos: https://www.outsavvy.com/
