Description

Four performers mount four treadmills. What begins as a simple wager between performer and audience becomes a desperate attempt to complete a series of escalating tasks that confront the limitations of the performer's bodies, spirits and minds. This is not an endurance feat. Nor is it performance art. It is an unraveling realisation that the system we participate in is not designed for us. A delusional and physical celebration of our collective struggle to establish clear boundaries in our lives. 'One of the most frenetically uproarious shows you will ever experience' ***** (TimeOut).
