circle of perpetual choirs is a project in round space. It is comprised of four unique solo dances that come together; individual songs within a chorus. 

​

A 3-dimensional choreographic holding space, the work gently and steadily acts on its audience, slowing them down and sensitising them to the subtle magic of choreography. 

​

With original sound by composer Sarah Westwood, circle of perpetual choirs seeks to share the multi-sensory and multi-dimensional nature of movement. Audience are centred within the action, the choreography unfolding all around, encompassing and wrapping them. Ley-lines of relationship are spun across the room, rhythms bloom and slip away, weaving an energetic web.

​

The work is installative and can be performed in several intimate iterations, offering audience members the opportunity to experience the choreography, in its ephemeral circularity, multiple times.

​"Despite the tangible silence, I had an experience of music.”

 

“Mechanical and natural. Soft and precise. Deliberate and incidental.”​

​

​

"It seemed rhythmically and qualitatively infectious. It felt so

 

detailed."

​

 

 

"I felt there was so much space around and I was surrounded by

 

dance. It was everywhere."

​​​

​

"Intimate, touching, intruiging, mesmerizing and memorable."
