A spectacular musical show which discusses the representation of a nation state, its characters and history. A learning play on myth construction and its reproduction.

A performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test. A game of chance. Constantly broadcasting live, actor Tam Dean Burn will leave Tramway at the start of INSTAL and walk away from it, in an ever increasing spiral, for a day. Then he’ll walk back.
