Music theatre play with actor Karl Quinn and musician/composer Steve Wickham will explore how the pandemic brings breath into focus. We collectively hold it, waiting for a result, waiting for a loved one to recover, waiting to be released. We run to the window, the park, the sea, to breathe deep and release. Linking breath to thoughts, actions, emotions and musical ideas of phrasing, tempo and attack, the play will look at the erratic breath of first love, the quick breath of surprise, the deep breath of joy, the held breath of grief, the laboured breath of illness.
