Free

Teenagers Kris and Zara share a city but can't find a place to rest. Haunting memories mix with an uncomfortable present as they keep on running, unable to face the consequences of their pasts - unable to stop or think for even a moment.

When the practice of free-running starts to cage them in, Kris and Zara form an obsessive relationship with one another, their city and the sport they know is pushing them to the limits of what is safe. Twisting together the real and the imagined, FREE asks what we're running away from and if we're ever willing to stop and confront what we've left behind.

Inspired by his on-going work with young people, David Lane's script has been developed in consultation with teenagers. FREE is his second commission with Half Moon following Begin/End ("the emotional charge and dislocation is beautiful" - The Guardian).
