BURNOUT PARADISE
Four performers. Four treadmills. One wager that spirals completely out of control.
-
Four performers mount four treadmills. What begins as a simple wager between performer and audience becomes a desperate attempt to complete a series of escalating tasks that expose exactly what a body and a person can be asked to give before something breaks. This isn't just an endurance feat, it's an unravelling realisation that the system we all participate in was never designed for us. A delusional, physical celebration of the collective struggle to hold a boundary in a system that keeps asking for more.
