Hannah Nicklin: Collected Works for Performance

The first collected works of Hannah Nicklin: a writer, game designer and performance maker experimenting with social engaged practices and storytelling in contemporary performance. This collection brings together three pieces made in collaboration with a series of other artists, musicians and people in the street, from 2012 to 2015. There is an introduction and commentary on each performance text, plus additional materials provided by collaborators, expanding and reflecting on the work, and how each piece was made. "[.] as topical in these days of police ''kettling'' and undercover provocateurs as it might be timeless in its questioning of the basis of a functioning civic society." - Wayne Burrows Songs for Breaking Britain "[.] defies the media''s lucrative monopoly on our narratives [.] funny, compassionate, heart-breaking and very, very loud." - Catherine Love Equations for a Moving Body "So interesting, engaging and relatable. Beautifully human." - Audience feedback in Newcastle>

Summary

Equations for a Moving Body is a story about our bodies in a world that transports our minds places bodies can't follow. It's a story about the physiology of endurance - when our brains tell our bodies to stop - and the psychology of carrying on.
