London Bubble’s major participatory production for Summer/Autumn 2007.

London. A city of people and their stories…
A city of walls that can imprison or protect, and doors that slam shut, or lead to new stories – and new people.

Forty Walls, Ten Doors was been created by more than 70 Londoners of all ages, working alongside professional theatre-makers and musicians. The participants’ own stories were interwoven with modern-day fairy tales to create a snaking, embracing, theatrical biography of a city and its claustrophobia.

The production continued London Bubble’s commitment to bringing participants of all ages together to make theatre on a public-scale, and follows recent productions The Gathering (2005) and Myths, Rituals and Whitegoods (2006).
