KIN at the Playhouse on the Fringe
After receiving outstanding reviews over the last twelve months, Donna
Rutherford’s acclaimed production - KIN - comes to The Playhouse on the Fringe
as part of this year’s Made in Scotland 2012 programme.
KIN explores the fear, sorrow, anger, guilt and frustration – but also
the love, trust and laughter to be found as middle-aged children negotiate the changes
in their relationships with parents. In moving close-ups, performers reveal to
camera concerns of their own aging while dealing with their parent’s
increasingly glacial pace of life.
Performers Cathy Naden and Claire Marshall (Forced Entertainment),
Richard Gregory (Quarantine), Tim Ingram (Reckless Sleepers), along with
award-winning actor and director, Alison Peebles are linked during a live
performance by Donna Rutherford.
As the passage of time speeds up, the future and its inevitable deteriorations
get closer. Just as you become slower at
everything you do, take longer to do the simplest things, you find yourself
hurtling downhill with no brakes.
