With recent unfortunate complications of Random Acts Theatre’s production of Jean Genet's 'Deathwatch', it is with a heavy heart that this particular production is being for the moment being suspended.

However, in lieu of this performance Random Acts Theatre has negotiated rights to host what will undoubtedly prove to as *astonishing*, dare it be claimed, more unusual theatre experience:

I appreciate your time and encourage you to see this truly bizarre theatre experience.

THE GOG/MAGOG PROJECT
More than eight years ago, performance artist Alexander Gog contractually agreed as a form of social protest and activist demonstration to be caged for a period of three years. During the intervening years, due to the death of those with whom the project began, The Gog/Magog Project continues with its performer having remained detained surviving exclusively on Banana Flavored 'Moon Pies'.

 The Gog/Magog Project has long been a source of controversy, many arguing that the artist should be released despite his initially voluntary imprisonment. There has been a formal enquiry begun by Amnesty International, despite all evidence of the initial projects contracts being incinerated and Gog’s often staging his suicide during several performances to return again in another venue in another area of the world.

 It has caused a stir in its constant international touring and this summer Random Acts Theatre brings to The Barnfield Theatre an alternative theatre experience that cannot (or rather, perhaps should not) be duplicated.

 Despite the considerable investment of bringing the show to Exeter, ticket prices will remain the same. Make what ethical assessment you will, The Gog/Magog Project does challenge the notion of artistic expression and the extremes to which one particular artist has taken such an endeavor.
