A big story about love, fate and luck told with everyday tiny things.
Up is a hopeful and joyful meditation played out as a fantasy tabletop adventure – Lucky Jay and Unlucky Jayme find love in the most unusual of circumstances.
A big story told with everyday tiny things, Up is an exploration of the unity of opposites discovered through ‘Object Theatre’, a dynamic and imaginative artistic discipline rarely seen in the UK.
As emergency masks plummet, engines squeal and hand baggage flies from the overhead bins, two strangers hold hands. Scared and breathless, their lives flash past as they face their final moments together.
A journey which turns time upside down and all the things that matter start to make sense.
Performed by two of Scottish Theatre’s leading actors (Zoë Hunter and Michael Dylan), Up is a captivating and thrilling two-hander.
"We're so thrilled to present 'Up' at this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival and to share this huge story told with tiny things. Object Theatre is such a dynamic and imaginative artistic discipline. When our production toured Scotland last year, the story and form provoked such wonderful responses from audiences and critics, that we knew we just had to share it with an even wider audience at the world's largest and best theatre festival in Edinburgh."
- Dougie Irvine (Artistic Director of Visible Fictions)
