Tin Shed Theatre Co. are launching a trilogy of socially distanced, joy filled happenings and participations with local artists, community collaborators and partners including Living Levels, to take us all through the cold winter months.

There will be secret performances happening across the city centre and online each Saturday in December.

Weʼre really pleased to be launching our project Happenus. With our local arts venue still unable to open we feel it vitally important that we explore creating random acts of creativity and joy that can spill out into our streets. This project feels exciting, thoughtful and explorational. Weʼre especially excited to start researching the history of the In The Nick of Time Clock that used to stand in John Frost Square and can now be found right in the middle of the Gwent Levels! We are really interested in talking to anyone who can share their stories, memories and thoughts about the clock.

Georgina Harris - Co-Director

The project will see the company take over a shop unit in Friars Walk shopping centre, and throughout December and January will be launching unexpected performances from the space.

They will also be exploring the history and mystery of The Nick of Time Clock, where they hope, in January, to appoint the official, ‘Ministry of Time’ and transform the space in Friars Walk into its headquarters and who knows where the Clock’s journey will take us – perhaps to some Gwent Levels ‘Big Skies’..?
