Instructions for Life

Carving in Ice Theatre’s Instructions for Life is an original work made from shared stories and intriguing interludes. Being alive is a complex business and if there isn’t any definitive instruction manual, where and how are we getting information on what we should be doing? If there is a manual, who is writing it and is it successfully reaching its target audience? Are there any ‘gaps’ in the record and why do these occur? This snapshot montage of twenty-first century life shakes up the familiar and speaks to all the senses. Intimate, funny, whimsical, heartfelt and, at times, deeply distressing, it’s a home ground journey through those small moments which we all share.
The perfect reaffirmation of what it is to be human and a reminder that there are glimpses of the extraordinary to be found within the most mundane pastimes. Nothing like a little life instruction to stir the heart and hint at hitherto unimagined possibilities.
