Steam Island
On our island we worked, we played and we danced…until the stranger landed on our shores.
Based on the evocative and haunting book The Island* by Armin Greder, this hybrid performance fuses together live physical performance, literature, digital art, sculpture and fashion to tell a poignant story of a community damaged by fear.
Steam Island is a Steam Punk fantasy devised and depicted by eight young physical performers and set to a lyrically enchanting musical score performed live. Delving into the psyche of the group dynamic, Steam Island explores issues associated with multiculturalism and social inclusion; the project asks audiences to reflect on decisions relating to others’ sense of belonging. This work is not just a simple staging of an award-winning book but an imaginative, dynamic performance with a powerful social message.
