At the website of Forced Entertainment the following, among other things, is written about A Decade of Forced Entertainment:

"A Decade of Forced Entertainment is a map of the period between 1984 and 1994 - a map that is at the same time accurate, haunted, fictitious and false. Part performance and part illustrated lecture, A Decade... presents a tenth-birthday look back on the company's work and processes. Mixing performance, autobiography, documentary and historical speculation, the piece combines insight into the company's work with a reflection on ten years of change in the urban British landscape which has inspired it.

The text for A Decade... is published in Certain Fragments."
