Hi SBAB fans. It’s been a while. But we have not been resting on our laurels. Oh no, we are in fact deep within the process that is variously known as SBAB module 3 or The Quiet Radicalism project.

Sedated By A Brick have been creating the final parts to their adaptation of inspirational and seminal book, the Shining.
Audience feedback from last showing: “that was fucking astounding”
We think that we may have written a new classic for the English-speaking world. An over-production of words most lovely in its malignancy. Bernard Manning is dead. Kate Bush is a recluse and Elton John is wearing his glasses. Surely nothing could go wrong! Round the church backwards three times I divorce thee, I divorce thee, I divorce thee.

Sedated By A Brick are a Bristol-based performance company, producing high quality ‘quirk’ since 2009. They want to see what kind of experiences they can create when they put their minds and bodies together.… Read on...
