Shallal brings new dance experience to Cornish
venues in May
Cornish inclusive arts charity Shallal new tour of pioneering new improvised dance theatre work in May started with
performances at Falmouth Art Gallery, Kestle Barton near Helston and comes tomorrow 10th May to Tremenheere Art Gallery at Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens, Gulval, near Penzance.http://www.tremenheere.co.uk/
‘We have
been working on an entirely new improvisation method which brings out
the element of surprise and playful spontaneity often missing in our lives and
in art’, says Shallal Creative
Director Jo Willis.
Shallal’s new
‘Here and Now’ project brings their three dance theatre companies together for a
touring programme which will take them to venues across Cornwall from Liskeard
to The Minack Theatre.
Described by an audience member as "mind-blowing, soul-moving, powerful performance”, the shows, funded by Arts Council
England, are admission free and fully accessible.
‘The new project has given a level of progression to the company that
is full of risk and new challenges and I am really excited to see where it will
take us’ said Shallal dancer Star.
Check Shallal’s website for times and
further tour dates throughout the summer and autumn www.shallal.org.uk culminating with a final
show in January at the Newlyn Art Gallery
The performance at Tremenheere
is at the art gallery which has level access and a disabled toilet. For further information please check venue websites.
The shows are alternating between art galleries and outdoor venues and sometimes both!
It looks good in galleries, the initial inspiration for it, and we are excited to perform for the first time in the beautiful new build space at Tremenheere, and if the weather is kind we might extend to outside.
