Holding Patterns
By Tim Etchells
Wednesday 26 August: 10.00pm
Holding Pattern is a 55-minute improvised torrent of language and original sound. Continuing Etchells’ exploration of writing, performance and music, the piece combines sound loops, stream-of-consciousness text and fragments of Google searches. Hovering between poem and delirious narrative, comedy and tragedy, it becomes a whirlwind in slow motion: erratic, exhausting and ecstatic, like the soundtrack to an imaginary film about now, shot on an iPhone from the back of a burning, spinning car. Etchells is an artist, writer and the artistic director of Sheffield-based Forced Entertainment.
This will be a special stripped-back show for Shedinburgh.
