Myths of transformation, love and loss are brought to life the way the ancient Romans would have seen them danced. In collaboration with Oxford University researchers, Le Marchepied have created their version of the popular Graeco-Roman dance form orchesis, also called tragoedia saltata, or tragic pantomime. Their performance is accompanied by an open interactive workshop on orchesis taking place at St Hilda's College in the morning of Saturday 20th. Audience members are warmly invited to participate or observe in advance of the evening's performance (for more information on the workshop or to book a place, please contact helen.slaney@st-hildas.ox.ac.uk).
