Magnetic North Theatre Festival presents

Paratherapy … gone horribly, hilariously awry.
Skydive is an action-adventure-comedy featuring Daniel, an emotional mess, afraid to even leave the house, and his estranged brother Morgan, who has launched a career in a radical new therapy after failing as the lead singer of an 80’s cover band. The men struggle to untangle the threads of their dysfunctional relationship, long-abandoned dreams, and the Jungian interpretations of Madonna, Van Halen and Corey Hart – all while skydiving.
Written by Governor General Award winning playwright Kevin Kerr (Unity 1918) and featuring the ES Dance Instruments, which allow for breathtaking aerial choreography where the performers soar above the stage floor for the entire play, Skydive defies both gravity and expectations. “Skydive demands to be seen because it is theatre that glories in creativity from its audacious concept to its gravity-defying execution.” – Calgary Sun
"A must-see for all ages!" - Montreal Gazette
