Daniel Kitson's trial runs for his new show Polyphony will go ahead at the Battersea Arts Centre from Monday as planned, despite the Grand Hall and the Lower Hall being destroyed by a fire on Friday afternoon. Ticket holders have been informed by email.

Kitson has previously performed in the Grand Hall, but these gigs were always due to take place in one of the smaller spaces, the Committee Room.

Not much information has been released about Polyphony yet, except that it is a play with Kitson playing all the parts and it will involve the audience pressing "play" buttons on tape recorders. Here is the info released by BAC. After the London previews Kitson will be taking the show to Australia and New Zealand. No further UK dates have been announced yet.
