In the time it takes to bleed to death… RUNNING GIRL premiered in June 2002 as a co-production with Tramway in Glasgow. A large-scale production featuring a live soundtrack, towering mobile film screens and a woman running for the duration of the show, this is cinema made flesh. "Have you ever done some desperate, foolish things come three o'clock in the morning?" The story follows the lost and lonely hours of a woman compelled to run unfamiliar streets as she tries to find her way home. As she runs, she meets various characters whose lives seem to be in topspin. Slowly but surely, as a new dawn creeps across the cityscape, a frightening truth becomes apparent… RUNNING GIRL is designed for the dynamic use of both indoor and outdoor environments and offers a unique experience - a totally integrated mix of live performance, film and video animation, together with live musical accompaniment. ***** "…shudderingly powerful… certainly one of the darkest, most dramatic and most haunting journeys ever portrayed in Scottish theatre." THE SCOTSMAN **** "…a triumph, marrying film and theatre techniques with finesse…" THE TIMES **** "This show comes highly recommended as an astonishing metaphor of our times." THE LIST |
