DUST
A shadow odyssey Homer adapted by Keith Bambury Directed By Luis Boy and Bob Pearce Devised and performed by Sally Brown, Steve Tiplady and Zannie Fraser Music by Ben Park The award-winning team of Indefinite Articles have created an extraordinary piece of visual storytelling, where reality and myth are woven together in a visionary mix. In a Belgian phonebox, the tale of the loneliness of the long-distance puppeteer is set on a collision course with the Odyssey. 3 performers, 3 overhead projectors and 3 buckets of dust combine to create something fresh, moving and unlike anything you will have seen before. The company re-invents the most ancient of theatrical forms: storytelling with shadows, to open up Homer’s tale of loss and longing to its contemporary resonances. Using dust, light and the human body….DUST will take you on the most extraordinary and unforgettable journey. Suitable for 14+ “Genius… a kind of theatrical sorcery…I’d be pleasantly surprised to come across a more original evening.” TIME OUT Critic’s Choice “Amazing…the elements of dust and light have joined with storytelling to extend the boundaries of theatre.” The TIMES Winner of the TIME OUT LIVE AWARD for most inventive show Off West End 2002 |
