Key facts

Synopsis

A provocative look at the human body with dynamic staging that combines movement and live projections, Kaite O'Reilly's poetic, poignant and at times explosively funny texts are inspired by the imagination, experiences and attitudes of disabled people across the UK.

Performed by a cast of six leading Deaf and Disabled performers with direction by John E McGrath and movement by Nigel Charnock, this radical, athletic production from National Theatre Wales celebrates the athleticism, diversity and skill of the company, whilst exploring the endless possibilities of human difference.

In Water I'm Weightless is an Unlimited Commission for the Cultural Olympiad.

Recommended for ages 14 and over. Contains strong language.

The performance will have integrated text. The post-show discussion will have live speech-to-text transcription. Tickets can be booked via the access email and paid for at the venue on the day of the performance.
