Working with improvisation and set material, we will explore ways of making, questioning and observing material for performance. The group will take turns to experience the work both as performers and spectators and look at ways in which a performance can become immersive moving in and around, and perhaps at times involve the audience. Drawing inspiration from the participants themselves, using personal stories and experiences as starting point for making, exploring how we meet and interact with each other across age groups, backgrounds and experiences.

The workshop will give the participants the opportunity to collaborate with highly acclaimed professional artists whose work has been exploring the relationship between voice and movement for the last 10 years in their projects such as ‘Say Something’, where they collaborated with choirs and ‘Duet’, where they worked with text and song, drawing from personal stories. The workshop will give the participants the understanding of the differing relationships between voice and movement as well as the performer and spectator. It will enable the participants an insight into H2DANCE’s approach to making and performing work, where the focus is one the immersive, interdisciplinary and where voice and movement go hand in hand.

People of diverse physicalities are very welcome and encouraged to attend. Unfortunately not accessible for wheelchair users.
