SECRETS: Hidden London
T1936278914
Like a Fish Out of Water presents an inspired new concept developed by seven sisters group that blends site-specific performance and handheld video technology. This exciting new event takes audiences on a magical journey around two of London's beautiful lidos featuring dancers, actors, stunning designs and cinematic soundscape. Taking place during opening hours, the audience receives an mp3 player with headphones to follow the route on the mp3 player screen and listen to the soundtrack, stopping to sit on deck chairs or picnic rugs, encountering live and pre-recorded performance, installation and the everyday users of the lido. A story unfolds based on the fictional heroine of Like a Fish Out of Water, an elderly woman who has visited and swum in the lido since childhood. She is "like a fish out of water" when on land and her fantasies and inner life are captured in a combination of beautiful underwater scenes in pre-filmed sequences and live performance. Myths and legends, mermaids and selkies, all are explored in this fascinating multi sensory experience.
