The Charles Linehan Dance Company. Charles Linehan returns to the festival with two new works embodying his ability to create understated intensity through the interaction of movement, light and sound. Robert Clark and Rachel Lopez de la Nieta collaborate with Linehan for the first time in Inventions for Radio 1964. The duet is a montage bringing together Linehan’s subtle and brilliant choreography and a dissonant soundscape featuring spliced and reassembled interviews about people's dreams. Its companion piece, The Clearing, features four dancers including long-term collaborators, Rahel Vonmoos and Greig Cooke, accompanied by four musicians performing a live score by Richard Skelton. Slow transformations evolve within a complex weave of beautiful sonorities and interplaying rhythms, in a sonic and lighting environment unique to the setting of The Borough Hall.
