Total Theatre Award-nominated Idle Motion fly from the pioneers of aviation to one woman's discovery of her past, taking you on a beautiful journey through crowded airports to silent skies. Recently selected for the British Council Showcase 2011, this stunning piece of devised physical theatre uses charming and inventive staging created from battered suitcases, puppets, maps and paper airplanes to captivate its audience. Idle Motion give wings to the unsung female pioneers of aviation, the journeys they took and the freedom they found in flight. Interwoven with this is the moving modern-day account of a young woman's travels to discover the story of her estranged grandmother - who had fled the constraints of her life in post-war Britain to settle in South Africa. Idle Motion is a young and dynamic theatre company who is based in Oxford. A young company with big ideas, they are passionate about creating and sharing exciting and innovative new work.| 16 May 12 | Greenwich Theatre Outer London, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
