Conjured up a vision of times gone by

unexpected story telling
encouraging to see that people with special
needs have the opportunity to express themselves
unsure what they are
12. Did the Shallal event enhance your experience of the location?
They brought histories to life
weather /situation
See per war quote,brought house to life in a
gentle convincing way, Far more vivid /convincing/authoritative than Living
History

very atmospheric
stories - it brought the building to life in a
magical way
13. Please explain
Gave the dance a context
superb place

Perfect back drop for a great inclusive event
It was a lovely experience
Brought some life to the area
wonderful grand setting
Brought it alive
it is beautiful - here would like to return
Right People, Right Place, Right Time
reminded me of Glormangast
lovely relaxed event
The utmost respect shown to the buildings and
surroundings
references
The house and those who lived in it came to
life. It was a haunting experience
new place for us (we’re other end of Cornwall)
great use of the space, will definitely come
alive for me, make next visit
very complimentary to the environment
such a backdrop lent towards all movement etc

14. Did the event enable you to increase your understanding of inclusive arts?
I had never considered inclusion to dance
so inclusive
know bit more of what can be achieved
yes a
little
well used to it
They were so professional and talented.
As always!
Not sure reply 14. I am an ex-professional
theatre, then start Falmouth School of art and “lead” not
best word but something like that - where we have two handicapped regular
dances
Working together all ages and abilities
creative.
Always need to see these events in person to
fully understand
So full of talent
it epitomised inclusivity
incredible diversity
It was wonderful to see all the performers
together as equal
I alreadty understand inclusive arts but it’s always a joy to see and have it
reinforced
yes increased understanding of inclusive arts
The interaction between able and lessable was inspiring
loved the way able worked with less able
Too much write here
already familiar
First time with expressive dancing
awareness of different levels of
ability/mobility etc working collaboratively
Visually ‘see’ people
with a disability but in the performance their disability is almost invisible “ How it should be”
can see what can be achieved
Everyone being equal and able
As i haven’t experienced many inclusive arts events - only Echoes dance co .
very much enjoyed it and want to thank the cast for their hard work and
professionalism :)
Everyone regardless of availability played an
integral and important part
Enhanced knowledge. Great to see all involved
my wife runs an inclusive cornish dance co. it
shows people who wouldn’t
have a chance to perform in public
just love seeing everyone together exploring
universal themes of humanity - we are all the same at heart
I was particularly moved by the performance of 2
paralysed women. Incredibly beautiful
nothing can prevent expression from the soul
everyone all abilities to a high standard
Shallal are always inclusive exemplary
cast members including with learning
difficulties
16. Would you come to a Shallal event again?
Absolutely
Enjoyed it very much
Enjoyable to watch
Its rare to see ‘inclusive arts’ so often the performances are for the converted not the “public”
to support and encourage
It was very unusual and to support people we
know ( Apex and Creative Brain)
if in area and available
we don’t
live in the area
if i have a lift with a friend
17. Any other comments
Very moving

audience
