Fear & Loathing is an epic quest, a sprawling journey through the Western World’s increasingly fragmented landscape. Inspired by verbatim material gathered whilst travelling the final forty days of the US Presidential Election campaign trail, Fear & Loathing confronts the West’s burgeoning nationalism and asks “Where are we heading?”
Led by Artistic Director Andrew Whyment, Squint is a London-based theatre company that asks big questions about the world we live in through exhilarating and provocative new work. Operating with the approach of researching journalistically, developing collaboratively and rehearsing playfully, their distinctive, ensemble-driven productions collide new writing, music, movement and multimedia to create visceral and highly visual experiences.

“The Artists of Choice Award will make us braver in both subject and form. It provides us with a safe playground in which we can tackle tougher questions, take more formal risks and craft braver stories. It is making us grow.”
