Dance Double Bill: On The Wall & R-ated

CroĆ­ Glan & Legitimate Bodies/Arno Schuitemaker

Dance

A double bill of Dance from Ireland's leading choreographers.

On The Wall:

Dance is dance… or is it? What if each dancer has different physical abilities? Where can this lead? Croí Glan, Ireland’s leading Integrated Dance company, produce work “of considerable power” (Irish Times) and their new offering is no exception. This humorous but poignant quartet investigates the disparity between how we view ourselves, and how we are viewed by others through the powerful cocktail of identity, sexuality and politics. David Bolger, Artistic Director of CoisCéim Dance Theatre, has choreographed a piece which may redefine your perceptions. Funded by the Arts Council and produced in association with The Firkin Crane, Cork.

R-ated:

A normal day. A normal man and woman. A tremendous shooting. Raw and powerful violence spills out on stage in Arno Schuitemaker’s newest creation. A long time ago, the theatre was a stage for violence. In our contemporary society, this stage is replaced by other media, such as big blockbuster movies and shoot ‘em up videogames. Here, the relationship between violence and entertainment is re-examined, using a strong physical language but without losing respect for the body and its vulnerability.

Two Hundred Feet:

Ella Clarke’s dance film ‘Two Hundred Feet’, with live score composed by Dara Smith, will also be screened at this performance. A Project Arts Centre commission.
