Past Works Recycling Plantmixed-bill night / 2022 - ongoing
available for booking



Past Works Recycling Plant is a mixed bill night of contemporary performance which we curate and host.

It's a night for 'recycled' performance: for reworked and remixed material, whirlwind retrospectives, rehearsal room B-sides, or the very first work an artist made 10, 20, 30 years ago.

Past Works Recycling Plant is a celebration of the ways that artists change and remain constant; how artists’ work is always already composted and fed back to itself. We reject the pressure to constantly innovate. We say: out with the new, and in with the old! An invitation to time-travel, making room for the unseen, the almost-forgotten, the stolen, the scribblings-in-the-margins, the what-was-was-there-all-along.​
