There We Have Been/Amstatten/In Cycles - T0708849049There We Have Been - Taking inspiration from the troubled relationships portrayed in Murakami's best selling novel, Norwegian Wood, There We Have Been presents a daringly intimate glimpse into a secluded world of fragile dependency. This touching duet sees the two performers intensely folding, wrapping and balancing, with the female character barely ever touching the floor. Amstatten - An allegory of fear and confinement. Amsatten draws on stories of hostage situations taken from news reports of the past 30 years presenting the audience a piece that is both beautiful and disturbing. Amsatten contrasts the performer's inner landscape with the imposition of a restricted physical space accompanied by a stark and geometric lighting design by Guy Hoare. In Cycles - In Cycles is loosely based on the Hindu belief in re-incarnation. We are born, we grow, we get old, we die, repeat. We go on very different journeys but the ending is always the same. At the end of it all we are only human. We are bound by fate and an inevitability from the moment we are born but if we are luckily, the end s not the end.Choreographer James Cousins (There We Have Been).
