About

I am the obsessional type, what type are you?

Each... and Every Inch is an intimate multi-media performance that allows the audience to travel through various spaces revealing the life and works of Elizabeth Smart (author of ‘By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept’). This unique journey promises the visitor passion, obsession, seduction and destruction, giving an insight into Smart’s extraordinary life, discovering her passionate fantasies, obsessions, secrets, jealousy and gardening madness.

Cathie Boyd, Artistic Director of Cryptic, has collaborated with composers Anthea Haddow (Glasgow); Diane Labrosse (Montreal); 3D Artist Brian McClave (Brighton) and visual artist Duncan MacCaskill (London) to create this site specific work. Music, text, visuals, a live cello duet, 3D video and ambient sound installations are combined together in this performance.
