ABOUT
Makers of performance, theatre, and film.
​
Personal, political, and experimental, our work explores and debunks power structures and social norms, mischievously and poetically subverting the status quo to reimagine the narratives we think we know.
Straddling genres and forms, our practice blends movement, theatre, clown, and documentary. Physically and visually rich, the work draws on the intimate and the epic, the mundane and the extraordinary, the silly and the serious. We are interested in how humour, play, and vulnerability can sit alongside complexity, grief, and resistance.
Working collaboratively, we devise original performance and film with both professional artists and non-creatives, placing lived experience, experimentation, and collective authorship at the centre of our practice.
We are interested in performance as an act of joy, community, poetry, and protest, often working outside traditional venues and in close dialogue with the places and communities we are part of.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
WHO
FLIGHT is the beast-child of theatre maker, director, writer and performer Sarah Calver. Created as company to make new work and explore experimental and collaborative processes.
​
Working in collaboration with a talented group of cross-disciplinary artists, Flight develops, devises and mounts original work. We also work with communities and non-performers, who often perform in the work.
​
FLIGHT has created, performed and toured work across the UK and Europe. With a regular home in East Anglia, we have been generously supported by Norwich Theatre, Dance East and The Cut. We are often funded by Arts Council England and local funding bodies.
​
With an experimental, cross-genre performance style, FLIGHT sits at the intersection of theatre, dance, performance art and immersive worlds.
​
We regulary collaborate with:
Designer MAYOU TRIKERIOTI
Video & Media Designer RORY WILLATS
Sound Designer GARTH MCCONAGHIE.
