The Winged State 2008-09

You have the dream again; you are flying, flying.
Suddenly the wind spills, spins, throws you and you are falling, falling,
falling.

On a remote floating island the Labyrinth Institute experiments with
cutting edge technologies free from the constraints of national law and
morality. Its desire is to create designer babies, clones, and offer
extreme plastic surgery from horns to tails to wings all for a king’s
ransom.

For one young man the monstrous experiments carried out on the island
become too much. Icarus has seen his father’s soul destroyed by the
Labyrinth, blackmailed to work on its grisly experiments. But when they
set out to flee their living nightmare, will they fly or will they fall?

 A collaboration between No Limits Theatre, writer Sean Burn and musical
ensemble Loon, and inspired by the myth of Icarus and Daedalus, ‘The
Winged State’ is a contemporary tale with a message for our time.

‘.highly atmospheric with striking sparse imagery and physical theatre,
including a hypnotic use of dance to an original score.’     (The Metro) (read more…)

Attic 2006-07 &2001-2

No Limits present ‘Attic’, beautifully crafted theatre, telling a tale of
the destructive consequences of war.

Tom is about to leave to fight for his country, full of courage and
memories from his homeland. But no one returns from war unchanged, and
haunted by the trauma Tom finds he cannot remember a single thing about
his past. ‘Attic’ is a search for memories that are lost in tragic
circumstances and the effect that this has on one family. The result is a
truly compelling and deeply moving performance with No Limits unique style
stamped all over it.

‘No Limits capture the sorrow of war with extraordinary emotive force.This
was a treat, a delight, and a deeply moving production.’  **** The
Scotsman (read more…)
