“Don’t you know by now that love itself never knew what love was, it never had to call itself anything it was always just here, and it will remain here”

Attempts in Flight is a coming of age story wherein seven performers find places of connection and similitude in their grapples with mental health, coming out, finding love, and saying goodbye. Devised with music and movement at the heart, this multidisciplinary performance seeks to find the magic in the mundane, unpacking what that means.
