Born out of snowy winters, the company's new work is a passionate mixture of movement and story, dance and music and light. Five women dancers explore the interface between form and imagination. Meditative stillness becomes moving shapes, whispered words mix with music and the light catches only the ghost of a body as it flashes past. In more climactic moments both story and dance push the audience to enter the eye of a hurricane.
For Body and Light is multiple dancers lit by a single sometimes moving light source. In darkness, spoken word and music create and project direct on your imagination. The dancers are colour, beauty, motion and touch, intimacy and solitude.
