Movie Magic - free stunt show in Aylesbury town centre

Have you ever wondered how your favourite superhero jumps out of a burning building, fights off the baddie and avoids the explosions, all in their stride?
On Thursday, August 9 2012, watch Kingsbury turn into a film set with the On the Edge action stunt show.
Top stunt performer Tony Christian, who has done stunts for The Avengers, Harry Potter and War Horse to name but a few, will be setting up the show with his team of stunt
performers.
The scene is set, the cameras are rolling, location…Kingsbury. Watch as a professional stunt team demonstrate how stunts are devised and choreographed before putting it all together in an intense all-action chase and escape sequence. The performance arena is set
up like scene from a movie set with our Stunt Action Director and Stunt Action Co-ordinator working in conjunction to bring the action sequences to life.
With stunt elements including combat action where the stunt team display their fighting skills;
high falls from up to 35ft; trampettes boosting stunt men to show off their realistic stunt reactions; acrobatics to help our hero get out of some sticky situations; pyrotechnics to add an explosive impact to the filming schedule.
Combining music, narration and sound effects, this action-packed show gives you an inside look at the men and women who risk their necks to make real movie magic.
This event is part of the free Thursday events organised by the Aylesbury Town Centre Partnership, a dynamic town team consisting of town centre businesses, the three local councils, Thames Valley Police and local organisations.
