Sticks Theatre

A lone cyclist riding towards us looks back at his life, from his first ride without stabilisers to his first racer, riding tandem with his first love to crossing the finish line ahead of his rivals and eventually being forced to hang up his racing shoes. His trials and tribulations unfold before us as he taps out a rhythm. Every gear shift corresponds to a significant time of life, with mountains to climb and potholes to be avoided, the cyclist must safely find his place on the road.

Sticks Theatre present the thoughts and voices of cyclists (hobbyists, amateurs and professionals) collected and forged into a highly physical and visual theatrical text. The music for the piece will be created live, using bike parts as instruments.
