Escape Room

Julianne Chapple / Future Leisure

 
 

Project Description

Escape is a one on one interactive performance delivered via phone and lasting approximately 30 mins. Beginning with a series of text messages, the work ends with a final monologue heard via phone call, while the participant watches a video online. Exploring themes of escapism, psychogeography, corporeality and the dissociation from the body that comes with an increase of online interaction, this work is an individualized experience taking place between midnight and 3am and acts as a choreographic score that can be physicalized by the audience participant.

Company Profile

Led by artistic director Julianne Chapple, Future Leisure is dedicated to the creation, instruction and presentation of innovative movement practices. With an emphasis on interdisciplinary collaboration, the company creates works which are based in and around the body and often incorporate movement, text, video, sound and sculpture. These hybrid pieces utilize surreal imagery, explorations of objecthood and invitations to contemplate alien worlds. Since it’s founding in 2018, the company has produced two evening length works in collaboration with the Dance Centre and New Works, traveled to perform at festivals in Toronto, Calgary, New York City and Derry, Northern Ireland, and produced two editions of the Shooting Gallery Performance Series. Since March, Future Leisure has presented three works through digital platforms presented by the National Arts Centre, MST: Performative Art, Upintheair Theatre’s e-Volver festival and CB Nuit.
