The OMSK underground front room will be an intimate and unsophisticated area - a living room which doesn?t want to be a daytime TV studio. Four sixty minute dysfunctional dissections, of: Confession, Failure, Sheer Noise and Personal Horror.

Things that will happen near or at your table: Soap, Performance, Counting, Films, Daytime TV, Records, Comedy, Video Pictures, Stories, Mayhem..

As ever, the audience gets messed up in the work and the work in the audience. All kinds of mishaps lead to something inexplicable. Crane your necks as the hour happens around you. Sit by as OMSK crashes your table and steals your date.

OMSK - the kind of night your parents warned you about..

Featuring, episodically, across the nights:
