Just read last post while waiting to: listen to music, reread an application etc and very grateful to have at last the bare bones of work for shows.
It was exciting yesterday at Shallal Dance Theatre to revisit all the ideas on paper in drawings and notes for Passmore Edwards!

and again in Shallal 2 we have bare bones for Clean Dirt ( working title).
Lots of exciting events coming up:
Transitions with Steve Tanner and Anna Marie Murphy at Newlyn Art Gallery, half term Friday we don't usually meet then but this is worth meeting up for - Thank you Steve!
Steve Tanner - Transition2 2017.
Who are we ?
Steve will be exploring our relationship with clothes, from the conformity of the uniform to the expression of individual identity.
We are the only animal on earth that clothes itself. From practical, social and aesthetic reasons, clothes express our individuality and our conformity. Clothes tell a story; they are tactile, they smell, evoke and carry memories. They can be man made to mass made. Lost clothes, abandoned clothes, forgotten clothes, recycled clothes, clothes of the dead and not yet born. Some are worn to purposely shock or question our status; then there are some who have no choice in what they wear: a homeless person, a refugee, a baby...
Steve invites you to be photographed as you are, or dress up to become someone else, bring an item of clothing that you can’t throw out or bring along clothes that you want to throw out.
Any clothes that you would like to to leave will be donated to Refugee Aid based in Penzance for their ongoing work with Refugees.

"Just emailing to say how much I enjoyed the dance yesterday. It is so good, ......., to learn something new and a new way of doing things.
thank you so much for all the time you gave up and the hard work you put in to teaching dance to my class. It was so lovely for them to experience something that I couldn't offer in such an open ended and creative way." class teacher
We hope they will all come to see our new show in July.
