Founded in 2009 by a trio of students at
the Rose Bruford College, Smoking Apples is a promising young company that
specialises in puppetry and visual theatre, which – while Britain holds its breath in the aftermath of the Brexit vote – finds
the perfect timing to re-propose the 2014 production of In Our Hands. The play – at
the New Diorama Theatre for three days as a part of a UK tour – explores the difficulties that Cornish fishermen
had to face after the imposition of EU quotas on fish, which appear quite easy
to manipulate by larger corporations.
