After an acclaimed premiere at Steppenwolf Theatre, prolific performance-artist Lindsey Barlag Thornton brings flights for future generations to Edinburgh – a solo performance drawing from the history of women aviators and spiritualists. Interweaving stories of flight with mysterious encounters, this piece layers movement, text, sound and imagery with analogue devices to explore our longing for ascension. Archives, dances and confessions arise, all supported by a cassette player's soundtrack. As lo-fi intimacy collides with a séance, flights for future generations charts a course between our faith and uncertainty where the body becomes both aircraft and altar. (Family-friendly).
