In Development
How Not to Climb a Mountain (HNTCaM) is full length highly physical performance work experimenting in anarchic resourcefulness. Through a process that tests what it is to be ill-equipped, the artists collect materials, challenging their accepted uses by playing against the narratives held within them. Mountaineering ice spike shoes scale a cardboard wall then delicately yet frighteningly caress a human body. Sonic interventions arise when instruments are tormented by power tools. The movements of highly trained acrobats are disrupted by stage dollies awkwardly strapped to their bodies.
