THIRD Angel presents Partus on Friday, March 3 at Prema Arts Centre in Uley.

Birth. It’s a massive life or death thing that happens every minute of every day in every country of the world.

The expectations, the exhaustion and the euphoria. The shock, the sadness and the stupidly long shifts.

The joy, the pain, the mess. Oh, and that first cup of tea that tasted better than anything, ever.

Third Angel delves into the myths, the statistics and the politics of birth, engaging with real people and real stories.

There will be laughter, hand-gripping tension, dancing, tears, shouting, singing and love.

You may never think about birth in the same way again.

Third Angel has been making adventurous theatre for the last 20 years. The company makes work that encompasses performance, theatre, live art, installation, film, video art, documentary, photography and design.

  •  Partus is at Prema, Bethesda Chapel, South Street, Uley on Friday, March 3. 7.30pm. Visit prema.org.uk for tickets or buy on the day.
