In 1971 playwright John McGrath set up a theatre group called 7:84, based on a statistic from 1966 that claimed 7% of the population owned 84% of the country's wealth.

We believe that the time has come for a theatre company that pushes the boundaries of convention in the same way as 7:84, and LeftField…

There were my usual, silent ‘friends’ on board. We have never spoken or have even asked each other our names but we are friends nonetheless. If one of us is absent then the loss is like a gaping wound felt by all, a tear in the fabric of the familiar. We grieve.

As a body we look sharply up should…
