Commissioned by Fierce and Dance City. Presented in partnership with Birmingham Repertory Theatre. Supported by ARC Stockton, Wainsgate Chapel, Shoreditch Town Hall, Northern Stage and Roehampton University.

Gillie Kleiman & Greg Wohead

Familiar is a double bill of new theatre shows on significant otherness. One authored by Kleiman and performed by Wohead, the other authored by Wohead and performed by Kleiman, the two are twisted together with story, song and spit.

Springboarding from a question of companionship, Kleiman and Wohead reach for something mysterious: a shaggy dog story danced by Twin Peaks’ legendary Log Lady, speaking from the beyond to enable the pair to become others of significance then and there in the theatre.

This new Fierce commission will tour UK theatres in 2020.

Design – Tim Spooner
Producer – Beckie Darlington

Fierce Says

Gillie and Greg are two of the most exciting young makers in the UK, so when they told us they wanted to make solos for each other we jumped at the chance. Expect a beautiful and quirky design by brilliant artist Tim Spooner too.
