Written in the Body is a duet about memory, touch and consent.
Two women delve into their personal and shared memories. They reveal their histories of tactile encounters with people, places and environments – the funny ones, the weird ones. The really not so good ones.
It’s a sometimes joyful, sometimes confronting experience as we go on a journey with the performers. Sometimes, their words come tumbling out and connect with our own stories. Sometimes, there is nothing to say. Then, their bodies do the speaking.
This new dance piece will bathe you in sensation, washing over you and through you – in focus or drifting.
Following a decade of creating performances in unusual outdoor spaces nationally and internationally, we return to the theatre to ask new questions and start new conversations about who we are, right here, right now, with our body.
