Smoke

A new strolling interactive performance

A man moves amongst members of the public. Gradually smoke begins to creep from out of his trouser leg. He gives his leg a shake and the smoke stops. Next, it arises from his collar, then his sleeves. All the while he acknowledges this with a weary resignation, but what starts as a tiny wisp, ends up as an all-consuming plume. Can you help him out before he disappears completely?

Smoke is a visual, non-verbal show that offers an abstract, gently comic and understated physical performance.
