An explosive physical performance by two men wrestling with their relationship to violence – onscreen and off.

Stuntman takes inspiration from classic and contemporary action movies like Die Hard, John Wick and Enter the Dragon to create high-octane and sometimes ridiculous fight scenes, while examining the impact that having action hero role models has on men and boys.

Fusing over-the-top stunt fights with personal stories from the performers’ lives, Stuntman explores the relationship between violence and masculinity and the impact this has on our perceptions of men. This is a show for anyone who’s enjoyed a violent action movie (but felt weird about it).

An intimate yet explosive performance from David Banks and Sadiq Ali juxtaposes the anger, rage and hype that men can feel on the brink of a fight with the calm softness and tenderness of not wishing to be violent. Adrenaline, tension and laugh out loud moments come together to create an entertaining piece of highly physical theatre, taking away some food for thought around their relationship to violence in the media and how that influences their lives.

This performance will be followed by a Q&A.

A gripping, galvanising hour of dance, athleticism and autobiography that might shock, surprise, even seduce."

The Arts Desk

On the surface fun and silly, it has much greater depth …delivered with a (thoughtful) punch. A small but perfectly formed piece of theatre.”
