Worked closely with creative teams and performers to present clear and perfectly timed 2D animations to complement and enhance the performance.
ABOUT THE PLAY:
by Empath Eyes Theatre
The theatrical adaptation of the epic film ‘THE FALL’ is a beautifully crafted, visually spectacular performance which combines theatre, original live music and animation, projection and art about one man's struggle with depression and his path to hope. It begins with a man (Roy) who has lost all hope for life. After a failed suicide attempt, he lies in hospital, aimless, motionless, despondent. It is here that he meets a young patient of seven (Alexandria) who he tricks into bringing him painkillers with the intention of overdosing. He manipulates her attention by telling vibrant stories about the journeys of five heroes (represented by ever-changing animation on a screen behind him and accompanied by an original score of live music).
