The Bridge
Co-commissioned by the National Theatre, Hat Fair and Laban. Funded by Arts Council England.
Clinging between past and future, the bridge has been destroyed and rebuilt a thousand times. A young woman caught in its history; another one desperately needs to get across. But the stubborn bridge-keeper stands in their way and will try to stop them, no matter what …
With humour, daring and exceptional physicality ‘The Bridge’ reverberates with our battle to defend our place in the world, whilst trying not to destroy it… again…
The acrobatic company mimbre works with director Joseph Alford from acclaimed theatre company Theatre O on this production; fusing world-class acrobatics with theatre and dance, using a unique physical language to tell stories and create imagery.
