About
Plastic....is it friend or foe? Remarkable or rubbish? Helpful or harmful?
Produced byāÆAkademi, Plastic Drastic Fantastic is a dance theatre work for children and their families.
The show explores humanity's complex relationship with plastics - the fantastic possibilities they offer, as well as the drastic consequences to the environment. Choreographed by Subathra Subramaniam, it is a vibrant, fun and thought-provoking show for our time.
Drawing from the Indian classical dance form Bharatanatyam and South Asian dance techniques, the artists investigate plastics and the dangers of their misuse through intricate movement, gestures and play, infused with interaction with the audience.
The processes and stories underpinning this dance project have been steered by children and young people, who are at the heart of the research for this work, created in consultation with material scientists at UCL.
Designed to be accessible for D/deaf audiences, Plastic Drastic Fantastic is a non-verbal dance piece.
Originally an Akademi and Polka Theatre co-production.
