Steam
A group of urban explorers discover beneath tarps a machine that changed the world.
Captivated, they shovel coals on the fires of the past and bring to life scenes of epic journeys. As drivers and engineers hurry back at the sound of a whistle’s blast the passengers begin to dance.
Steam is a fast paced journey from the silent movies of Buster Keaton through the hijackings of the Wild West through the rooftop stunts of a James Bond chase to the heartbreak of the First World War and into the dark future of inner-city commuting where demand for space leads to the creation of a new martial art.
The Urban Playground Team are the original performance-parkour company, combining dance, psysical-theatre, slapstick and authentic French free-running in knockabout comedy shows for the whole family.
Having toured across five continents over ten years, the UPGTeam returns in 2016 to Barnsley with a unique new full length in theatre version of their touring show commissioned especially by the Civic.
