Olwen Davies - Fridge Logic
Olwen, the performer, is attempting to make a movie.
She is having trouble.
She doesn't have the resources she needs.
She is not sexy enough, scary enough, entertaining enough.
She needs you to believe in her and help her discover the emotive direction needed.
Following classic narrative structures, referencing other famous movies and their characters, the piece takes a humorous and moving journey through bad re-enactment and the confessions of a lonely performer.
Fridge Logic explores and questions the audience's relationship to the mediated performer within a media literate culture. For the 3 days leading up to the performance, download videos inform you of a series of tasks to undertake in preparation for the show - www.youtube.com/user/FridgeLogic
This performance takes place at the Stanley and Audrey Burton Theatre at Northern Ballet, Quarry Hill, Leeds, LS2 7PA
Tickets can be booked via Northern Ballet's website.
