Totemic Festival

A weekend of performance, screenings and lectures celebrating the centenary of Freud's 'Totem and Taboo'. Over the course of the two days, a wide range of activities will take in screenings, live performance, lectures and readings across the ground floor spaces and gardens, with artists and speakers responding to and creating works around the series of essays that itself draws on 19th century anthropology to construct a psycho-historical tale of murder, cannibalism, incest and guilt at the dawn of civilisation. Advance booking is highly recommended
