Monster/New Work/Strange Journey
Monster 'Monster' - about the lover's hell of jealousy and obsession and the search for the perfect love. The possessive desire and all-consuming emotion of jealousy is a physical thing - it hurts. 'Monster' is lovers dancing and dicing with death. ?Monster' is the lie that tells the truth with the joke that isn't funny.
New work - Matteo Fargion - This new work will probably involve singing, shouting, making sounds, counting, dancing, walking and arm waving. It probably won t involve improvising, using the space in interesting ways or moving beautifully. It will work with structure and time, and explore ways to hold the attention of an audience so that they care what happens next.
New Work - Saju Hari. Saju s new work will take its inspiration from martial arts and the influence of South Asian dance forms, both abstract and physical, poetic and hard hitting. It will be inspired by the music inspired of Japanese composer Ryjio Ikeda.
Strange Journey (2010) Irish dance and music has its roots based firmly in tales and tradition and is expressed through the medium of family and community gatherings; in this way it has been passed down from generation to generation. Strange Journey is a synthesis of different rhythms and movement that taps into the vein and seeks to express the self same spirit of story and sentiment evoking the Celtic past of struggle, joy, love, travel and loss. These feelings are fused with contemporary influences to give a lively and absorbing experience which will both haunt and enchant the audience combining soulful laments and toe tapping beats.
