What story lies behind the image? The truth, or the next front page? In the digital era of the 24 hour news cycle, how do photo journalists square their commitment to the truth with the media's voracious need for a graphic image? When the threat of death is a daily reality, why do they do it? Landing in Sarajevo and joining a pack of seasoned war journalists, rookie photographer Dannie Hills sets out to capture the perfect image. Each photograph she shoots becomes a kaleidoscope of dreams, memories and emotions - exciting, painful, and forever haunting... Widely heralded as a remarkable piece of physical theatre, this award-winning play integrates fluid movement, live sound design and animated projections with striking originality. With its frenetic and restless energy set against a backdrop of 20 years of conflict, Bare Witness is a visceral experience that will change the way you look at the news.
