Disappearing Acts

Layout 1

Overview

Operating on the threshold of visibility it offers subtle readings of the body, movement that disappears into the shadows or slips through unseen gaps in the curtains leaving lingering traces on the retina. Evocative images, stories and wry humour give voice to our experiences of disappearance, night-time and politically ‘dark times’.

Further Details

Bringing together an international team of collaborators, choreography is by Yael Flexer and the company, text by Wendy Houston, dramaturgy by Pete Phillips, sound-score by Karni Postel, James Keane, and Nic Sandiland and bespoke digital lighting by Nic Sandiland and Natalie Rowland.
