Life finds a way of making us confront our opposites—but what if your opposite lives next door?
Domi has been making extra arms to help people all over the world. She’s become a local hero and everyone is calling her the “eight- armed woman”! But Sora, Domi’s next door neighbour is suspicious… and starts spying on Domi, determined to prove that she’s a threat to their community.
Shortlisted for Brighton Fringe’s Best New Show award, ‘The Arms’ has opened to sold out shows and five-star reviews. This two-woman show uses original music and a set and costumes made from recycled and compostable materials to tell a story about coexistence
The show will end with a brief Q&A.

“I still had two arms, two hands and ten fingers. I was just the same person. I was devastated.
What’s wrong with me? Why do I have only two arms? Why am I so tiny and useless?”
