Fascination of Endurance

April 2009

A two week physical theatre laboratory to develop new work.  The aim of the project was to explore inclusivity and physicality.  Using ideas inspired by working with Australian Dance Theatre and Restless Dance Company in Adelaide. Co-directed and performed by Philip Channels  (artistic director Restless Dance Company) and myself.  Working alongside Kwesi Edman (composer), Susanna Wallin (film maker), Adam Benjamin (co founder Candoco Dance Company) and Jenny Sealey (Director Graeae Theatre Company) 

As the project was a collaboration between London and South West Artists  we were able to have a sharing at both locations and invited audiences of professional artists to critique the work at the University of Exeter and Sadler's Wells. 

To make the work accessible to a wider audience the process was filmed and can be seen on the link below.

The project was funded by Arts Council South West
