Double Bill: Neil Callaghan & Simone Kenyon + Action Hero

At the age of six she became lightning. 25 years later she's ready to do it again. In this performance, he will play the part of thunder and she will play the part of lightning. Together they will cook up a storm. 

This performance has a sense of the loneliness of being lost at sea. Two performers attempt to find intimacy across the infinite horizon and then go their separate ways. They say 'goodbye', part and map the distance between them. A reflection on love, weather, distance and the poetics of the sea.

I'm going over in a barrel. I'm leaving the cannon, hitting the ramp at 90mph and clearing ten double-decker buses. I might fall. I might break my body into several pieces, but then I'll dust myself off and do it all over again. 

Action Hero have measured it out, done a few calculations and are confident that it could go either way. Watch Me Fall explores daredevils, our obsession with those who attempt the impossible, the futility of their attempts and their inevitable fall from grace.
