It all started with a struck match and ruminations on the vast consequences that can come from small actions. A Small Prometheus is about unpredictability and the boiling points that tip one state into another - from cooperative to menacing, chaotic to ordered, individualistic to unified. The work teeters between recklessness and structure. Flame, steam, smoke and burning drive the action with a shifting tension between mechanical precision and anarchic wildness. A Small Prometheus looks at the coexisting darkness and light in human nature and the spark that mediates the two. Selection 2 of new Australian dance made for the screen will be shown before A Small Prometheus. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body. Lucy Guerin and Stephanie Lake with Robin Fox is a double bill offering with the price of £18/?10
