Here's what I did with my body one day : a genetic detective thriller

Here's What I Did with My Body One Day features a sharp and witty script that helps propel a detective thriller story about genetics and inheritance. The set provides an elegant neutral space that becomes animated by projections to create settings in and around Paris. The media design uses live camerawork, pre-recorded video footage, digital stills and computer animation to create backdrops and effects, most of which are projected on a large screen that is almost permanently in use. Projections elsewhere include a face in a spinning bicycle wheel, the sudden appearance of a photograph on some scraps of paper and the ghostly manifestation of three dead French intellectuals in the windows of a Eurostar train. The show features extensive physical action, including a leitmotif of waltzing, the cycling of Ernest Chausson, a cartwheel frozen in mid-air as Roland Barthes describes his death, and the spinning of Pierre Curie as he tells of the properties of radium. The sound design interweaves found and newly composed music and plays (often subliminally) throughout. The show moves fluidly. There is a continuously transforming space and no break in the action
