General
From 25 October-18 November 2006 the auditorium of the Royal Shakespeare Theatre was transformed into an intimate 100 seat studio space.

Founded in 2001 by actors Oliver Dimsdale and Ferdy Roberts and musician Tim Phillips, Filter create an on-stage fusion of live and recorded music (their trademark live integrated sound), naturalistic and stylised physical movement and video images.
History
Played from 2-4 November 2006.
