Written and Performed by Heather Alexander
★★★★★ “A spellbinding performer at the height of her powers.
”★★★★★ “Alexander’s storytelling is transcendent.”
BREATHE explodes onto the Fringe with a high-voltage mix of immersive theatre, cinematic projection, original sound design and raw, physical performance. This is the story of a life lived at full volume — from 60s childhood to 70s glitterball glamour to the moment illness redraws the map of existence.
Created and performed by the multi-award-winning Heather Alexander, BREATHE sweeps audiences through decades of defiance, creativity and survival. Expect storm clouds in jars, disco floors built by youth theatre artists, film sequences crafted under the influence of legendary filmmaker Mark Cousins, and a soundscape that vibrates through the body.
Visceral. Uplifting. Unmissable.
This is Fringe theatre with cinematic punch — a show that grabs you by the heart and doesn’t let go.
