FUSED
A fusion of artists, ideas and performances… Come 2010, The Actors Studio @ Lot 10 will be celebrating the arts with a brand new bi-monthly experimental series called FUSED. Expect fresh talent, new acts, intriguing experiments… expect the unexpected. Feast on something different every night of the week as we promise an array of performances as well as workshops. Come for one night or five in a row – each night offers you an alternative genre of the arts. Sit back, relax or just join in the fun. Nothing too heavy, we promise you, but it will be a fascinating experience and a great time at the theatre is certain!
