Cross your host's palm with silver and have your own palm read. With
good prospects and upbeat fortunes absolutely guaranteed, the future
will be looking rosy.
Third Angel offered an idiosyncratic, sideways view of this most
ancient of 'art sciences' and brought you palm reading with a difference.

Biog; Third Angel makes original,
inventive and
entertaining contemporary performance that speaks directly, honestly
and engagingly to its audience.
Established 1995 in Sheffield, the company has toured work that
encompasses performance, theatre, live art, installation, film,
video art, documentary, photography and design, throughout Britain
and mainland Europe. The work
combines fact and fantasy, autobiography and fiction, whilst discovering
magic in the small intimate things in life.
Third Angel has shown work in theatres, car parks,
galleries, disused swimming baths, office windows and
foyers, school halls, public toilets, cinemas, on the internet and
in a cold damp cellar in Leicester.
Recent work includes Hurrysickness (2004) a performance lecture
exploring the effects time and time-pressure have on the human psyche
and physiology, commissioned by Arnolfini and Wonderful, emanating
from a Wellcome Trust
SciArt-funded research project Karoshi; Pleasant Land (2003) a performance
installation and online research
project asking what it means to be English in the 21st Century,
commissioned by Shooting Live Artists and Leeds Metropolitan University
Gallery.
In 2005 Third Angel premières a new touring work for
theatre spaces, The Lad Lit Project, supported by Sheffield Theatres,
Prema Arts Centre and Leeds Metropolitan University Studio Theatre.
