Playing Fields looks at land through a youth-driven, outdoor, participatory sound performance. Created using interviews led by youth ages 13-17 about land use, ownership and belonging, this aural performance features voices of teens from Richmond (BC), Whitehorse (Yukon), Dublin (Ireland) and Hong Kong.

Playing Fields uses sport as a creation entry point, but the focus is on where the game takes place: the field itself. This is also the place where the show happens. The recorded audio interviews are interspersed with prompts for the audience on the field – each wearing individual headsets – who are led through a series of movements that accumulate into a group choreography inspired by a field game.
