'MUST - The Inside Story'
Peggy Shaw and Clod Ensemble

In collaboration with the celebrated Clod Ensemble, legendary New York performance artist Peggy Shaw takes the audience on a journey across the landscape of her own body.

Renowned for her own gender bending autobiographical work, she recounts her extraordinary experiences of the medical profession, weaving together the stories of a lifetime - giving birth on the way to Woodstock, her mother's electric shock treatment in 1950s America, the loss of a loved one - with projected microscopic images, and live musicians performing a powerful score for piano, double bass and violin.
