The Oikos Project

19 June - 9 October 2010

Oikos (pronounced ee-kos) is the root word of economy and ecology.

The Architecture Foundation in collaboration with progressive theatre production company the Red Room has created a live build project (initiated during the London Festival of Architecture) commissioning Berlin-based practice, Köbberling & Kaltwasser to create a theatre made completely from recycled and reclaimed materials.

Visitors to the Festival will be invited to donate materials for the build of 'The Jelly Fish Theatre' and were also able to give a helping hand in the construction process with Martin Kaltwasser.

The theatre will remain in Southwark and will be programmed with a series of plays focusing on climate change and our present society especially commissioned, produced and directed by the Red Room.

For further information, including play listings, please visit the Oikos Project website
