A top Manchester venue has issued a strict ‘no phone’ policy ahead of a new show which is getting its world premiere in the city this week.

Running until October 19, Aviva Studios will be hosting Balkan Erotic Epic, which is the latest show from internationally renowned artist Marina Abramović. The show has been in previews since Thursday but officially begins this evening (October 14).

The ‘bold new performance work’ will take inspiration from Abramović’s Balkan ancestry, as well as traditional rituals and practices from the likes of Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia and Bosnia. The four-hour show takes viewers through a journey of 13 different scenes featuring more than 70 performers, including the inspirational artist herself.

Audiences will be able to experience the show
