W O W

"WOW is a work evolved from the particular and challenging circumstances of its making. Working over Zoom, eventually in the studio, then finally in the theatre, we constructed a dance for and with the second-year dancers.

​

WOW brings these women together in their separateness, hinting at resonances of that time – memories that are confined to their hands and eyes, a restricted dimensionality, and a quiet intensity of focus that evokes a sort-of continual processing, or a repeated playing out of singular moments. The dancers have been exemplary throughout this process, and we want to thank all of them for showing up, for their generosity (to us and to each other) and for their many and marvellous contributions to this work."
