Fevered Sleep's Above Me The Wide Blue Sky

More Fever for Young Vic

Published 8 January 2013

Innovative theatre company Fevered Sleep will return to the Young Vic theatre later this year with Above Me The Wide Blue Sky, a new one-woman show about our response to the world outside.

Playing from 7 to 28 March (press night 12 March), the production, which is staged within a multi-screen film installation, combines images, movement and sound to tell stories of love, loss and belonging within an ever-changing world.

While Fevered Sleep’s 2010 show On Ageing centred on objects that give people a sense of place and identity, Above Me The Wide Blue Sky explores the emotional response individuals have to the natural world, the ways in which it affects their mood and how it changes over time.

Performed by Laura Cubitt on a set made of two tonnes of chalk, the hour long show will play in the Young Vic’s Maria studio within the framework of a three hour installation, which allows audiences to be immersed in the sights and sounds of the natural world.
