It begins in darkness is a dance full of ghosts.
In this stark, stripped back performance, five dancers move through mysterious and experimental rites of passage, channelling past, present and future tensions through their bodies and voices. As if to exorcise the haunted house of history, the dancers whisper, jump, wrestle, shiver, wail and laugh, filling the space with horrors, both real and imagined.
It begins in darkness is an environment for processing the fear, anger and confusion which arise from the histories of slavery and colonialism that haunt the present.
Suitable for ages 12 and over.
Contains themes of slavery and colonialism. It is planned to have printed versions of the text made available.
This event is priced as“Pay What You Can” with a guided suggestion of £8.
Online booking for this event closes Thursday 20 October, 7pm.
