SWIMMER
In the run up to the 2012 Olympics Offstage Theatre has been interviewing
London swimmers from all of the Capital's boroughs in association with
London Pool’s Campaign. These interviews are to be used in the adaptation
of Bill Broady’s 'Swimmer' at the NT Studio – a story about
a competitive swimmer’s passion for water.
This dreamlike play will be performed in January 2011 at the Bridewell
Theatre, which used to be a Victorian bath house, and promises to revolutionise
storytelling by continually questioning the relationship between sport
and art, actor and audience, and site-specific practice and traditional
theatre going.
A short film,
full length documentary and several exhibitions of children's art work
will also be born from this fascinating project.
