Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity: PLAY DEAD by People Watching

This page is also available in / Cette page est également disponible en: Français (French)

Set in a shifting universe of domestic trappings and interlocking stories, People Watching’s debut creation Play Dead brings us a surrealist chronicle of the familiar. The inventive mix of acrobatics, dance, and physical theatre casts circus in a fresh and unexpected light; by creating space for seemingly unexceptional stories to unfold, Play Dead invites us to look closer and marvel at how beautiful, twisted, and sometimes laughable reality can be. Far from settling into bored fatalism, Play Dead marvels at the absurdity of the mundane and celebrates life, the same way people desperately dance to the last song before the party ends.
