Vaguely Adjacent

MERRIGONGX Artist Profile

About

Vaguely Adjacent is a new performance collective led by Nick Vagne, Sophie Florence Ward, Luke Standish and Frank Dwyer. Although its name is unambiguous, the work it creates is not. Built upon a devised process, lots of play and anything that’s lying around, Vaguely Adjacent reaches into the fringe box of discarded novelty and brings it right into focus. The result is a wild blend of genre and form that’s silly, serious, and outrageous. It may not be the work you expected, but one you will love every step of the way.  

“This show was developed through us discovering ways to bring the audience not only to the table, but to put their hands in the pie. We’ve asked questions of whether those already hoodwinked can hoodwink another. We wish to replicate the aesthetics of conspiratorial indoctrination to the end of revealing their insidious misdirections and hypocrisies. Not only are we pushing the medium of theatre, we are pushing the medium used by actual consiracy theorists to see how far it goes and where the edge is, if there is any at all.”
