One of the things we try to do each year at Greenbelt is try to show you a few things you’ve (hopefully) never seen before – or might never see anywhere else. With CODE, we think we’ve found one of them.

Created by physical theatre company Justice in Motion, CODE is a thrilling, visceral new show that tells the story of ‘county lines’ crime. It takes place in a specially-built environment designed to look like an estate of concrete block architecture, which we will stage (twice) in our Playhouse venue.

You’ll follow the story of a young person groomed by a criminal gang, who becomes caught up in the illegal drugs trade as a mule, delivering to different areas of the country. Around 1000 county lines operate in the UK, each one returning an average annual profit of just under £1 million.

The performing company features a talented group of urban sportspeople – trials bike riders, parkour athletes, skateboarders – as well as physical theatre and dance performers. All of it accompanied by a unique live soundtrack. It promises to be extraordinary and we can’t wait for you to witness it.
