About

The ADRENALINE fuelled GRAVITY DEFYING show reveals the modern slavery problem under our nose! 

Inspired by joy. Informed by truth. Sustained by hope. ON EDGE combines highly physical parkour and compelling theatre to tell a gripping story hidden in the shadows of the construction industry. A team of international collaborators, parkour athletes and performers present a visually stunning, breathtaking and entertaining piece of theatre.                                       
 
Atop towering scaffolding, a group of men ricochet around a building site. Their routine may give a sense of purpose and security yet behind the perimeter fencing, all is not as it first appears. Justice in Motion marries exciting choreography, theatre and parkour athletics with beauty and humour, to tell a stimulating, moving tale that asks - What does it really mean to be free?
 
The production is aimed at 12+, yet suitable for all ages.

** This event is part of Greenwich Family Arts Festival, a month-long programme of free arts activities, theatre, workshops and more taking place all across the borough of Greenwich. Events are grouped across a weekend in different locations, so you can attend multiple events each day and really get those festival vibes (we know it's been a long time!)
