Charles Dickens' best-known work of historical fiction was published in 1859 and set in London and Paris before and during the French Revolution of 1789.  It's a novel of revolution, of love and adventure; even if audiences haven't read the book this is definitely the show for them.  And if they have read the book, this is still the show for them.

'STILLED' is an unusual performance work of distinction by FEVERED SLEEP, one of the UK's foremost independent theatre companies whose headquarters are at the Young Vic. 'STILLED' will be performed by Robin Dingemans, Valentina Formenti, Sachi Kimura, and Petra Soor at Siobhan Davies Studios in London on Saturday March 17th between the hours of 1pm and 8pm; it is simultaneously an absorbing, durational dance piece and an exhibition of pinhole camera photographs which are taken of the performers in action and then exhibited throughout. The production is performed not only for a human audience, but also for an audience of pinhole cameras, all of which were designed and handmade by Fevered Sleep's visionary artistic director, David Harradine.
