'shunt typically conjures up a brilliant coup de théà¢tre that will linger in the memory long after more coherent shows have vanished' - Time Out
'an ingenious, jangling evening' - The Evening Standard
'Money offers a surreal meditation on self-gratification and careless economic speculation...a thrilling ride.' -The Metro
'shunt is back with another mind-boggling but nonetheless spectacularly alternative show' - The Londonist
In a tobacco warehouse by London Bridge sits the giant centrepiece of our great industrial exposition ' an abandoned relic of Victorian technology.
The original purpose of the machine is unknown.
If it were built today it would probably fit into the palm of your hand but, in that Golden Age, colossal bulk was the plat du jour.
The future is behind us. The end of the empire is just around the corner
MONEY takes place in an extraordinary three-storey set built in the centre of an empty warehouse in Bermondsey Street. The audience are led inside, where the action unfolds around, above and below them.
