Laura Boynes’ Equations of a Falling Body is a 60-min performance using real-time choreographic processes; where what is most distant, the ‘elsewhere’ of politics and cosmos, continually finds its entry into the everyday lives of the performers, reshaping details in ways that are both insidious & comic.
A stellar cast of WA performers – James O’Hara, Ella-Rose Trew & Tim Green – are fed instructions through in-ear pieces from Laura as the live mastermind. These instructions direct, order, manipulate and guide the performers on content to perform where, when and how.
This choreographic immediacy represents the unpredictability of our contemporary world and extent to which our lives are controlled by larger forces, yet we remain resilient.
