Two dancers at a shadowed table against a deep red background. On the left David, a white standing dancer, looks down at his palm sliding along the table. On the right, Laura, a white wheelchair dancer, leans and looks away from David, one hand still lingers near his, the other hand falls over as she leans. Both have dark hair, David's is short and Laura's is sleeked back into a low bun. They wear dark tops, arms bare and sculpted by the stage lights.
Trespass was a double bill of Within by Thomas Noone and Splinter by Rob Tannion. Artistic direction by Vicki Balaam
Within by Thomas Noone
Within sees a lone dancer being drawn into her own imaginary world. The piece plays out against an unorthodox soundtrack of a harpsichord clashing with various Indian instruments and presents an equally unconventional mix of explosive movement, bodies crashing into furniture and touching duets.
Splinter by Rob Tannion
Thrown into another world and on a quest to progress their work, the dancers wrestle to balance their hunger for creativity with their desire to demonstrate a delicate humility. In their attempt to achieve cohesion, will the group subsist or Splinter?
