Technical Information
Synopsis
An exploration of a father by a daughter using cinefilm, clowning, dance, puppetyr and hurdling. It is reality bordering on fiction; an athletic-puppetic meditation on love, loss, memory and play. Dad trains for the Olympics by day and drags up to the nines by night. His photos ans Super 8s inhabit the scene and reveal the man. Reality, age and obsession set in. His money-saving schemes become increasingly elaborate, from the secrets of free water to newspaper-stealing shoes. But eventually everything must go.
Technical requirements
These are a general guideline only. Please request a technical specification for your venue.
A performance space minimum 8 metres wide, 6 metres deep.
White dance floor, white cyc or backdrop.
Full sound system, amp, speakers; CD player.
Lights, video and sound need to be operated by one person.
Two or three video projectors (depending on size and proportions of space); cabling to project the same image through all projectors.
We will provide a lap-top which will be the source of the video images.
Lighting specifications will depend on venue size, lay out and technical specifications; please request a lighting plan.
Available for touring from September 2009.
