Description Programme: "Through performance, William Johnstone seeks to explore the parameters of expression. Fascinated by, and taking his cue from, the 'via negativa' concept put forward by Polish director Jerzy Grotowski, Johnstone seeks to shatter the distinction between 'theatrical reality' and 'true reality'. Character, along with text and other resources of the theatre, are used to peel away layers of culturally conditioned statement and response."
