A Song and Dance (WIP)
By Action Hero
Created by Gemma Paintin and James Stenhouse
Tuesday 25 & Wednesday 26 August: 8.30pm
Lost inside a recurring nightmare, a reluctant actor returns to the stage. In an attempt to conquer an 8-year period of intense stage fright - and inside a dream-world inhabited by the phantoms of his disapproving ancestors - he is replaying his own autobiography and starting to lose the plot.
OFFIE award winners and ‘Beckett’s hip, pop-culture savvy descendants’ (Time Out) Action Hero are back with an absurdist nightmare of a show about masking, performing and ‘acting the part’.
This is a chance to see a brand new piece of work from a legendary Fringe company as a part of Shedinburgh. Please note this will be a work-in-progress performance.
