Through the Cracks is an Augmented Reality (AR) theatre app co-produced by Office of Everyone and English Touring Theatre. The project shares undervalued stories that have fallen through the cracks, both figuratively and literally. 'In time' by Sonali Bhattacharyya is the first story featured. The piece comprises two four minute scenes that can be experienced together or with a break. You should physically move your device and your body around the cracks in the floor as if they are part of your physical surroundings.

POINT.A leads you on a bespoke outdoor audio journey highlighting the magic already surrounding you. All you have to do is be in the right place at the right time. Currently available in select cities only, our app is a tailor-made art intervention for each location offered. From transforming your own body into a radio tuner as you walk, to secret performances hidden in plain sight, POINT.A guides you through a hidden world - in a city you grew up in or are visiting for the first time. Choose the work for the city that you are in, show up at the right place at the right time, put on your headphones and let lush binaural soundscapes and narration reveal a world you might have taken for granted.
