ENDLING/Criocharan - T01125315468World Premiere. An endling is an individual that is the last of its species. Once the endling dies, the species becomes extinct. ENDLING uses dance, vocals, music and design to reimagine tales of funerary and mourning rituals of Scottish and Irish Gaels, their chants, songs and customs; many on their own deathbeds and disappearing with each passing generation. Rob Heaslip collides popular and folk culture to create a tale of collective memory and consciousness in a world awash with acid pink, green and purple. Contemporary meets traditional, macabre meets joyful, and morbid fascination is welcomed in to the raucous world of a Gaelic wake. | |

FREAGRA/A Blurred Expanse - T1267468678FREAGRA | A Blurred Expanse is an ensemble piece of contemporary dance exploring identity; is one's identity a choice or a group consensus? Themes of relationships within group dynamics will permit the viewer to look upon a group of performers and witness them experience and consider different scenarios from harmony to conflict. Environment, group and individual will meet at an interchange where they affect one another. Here a focal point will be conjured to create a dance piece based upon the play of cause-and-effect in human collective mentality.Choreographer Rob Heaslip. Music Ross Whyte.
