Week 3 - Rehearsals


This week in rehearsals we have really got into the meaning of the piece and spent a lot of time improvising to the score Tom has had created to find our own journey through the piece.

We began by listening to the music and writing down words that came to mind to describe the feeling it evoked. With these words, we then created a short story and then with this story in mind began to improvise to the music. This produced some really interesting movement and pathways that would have been impossible to create by directly choreographing the movement, and also allowed us as dancers to understand and become immersed in the atmosphere of the piece that Tom is creating.

As a company we are all getting to know each other better, and a real sense of friendship and trust is being established. Can’t wait to be performing with all these guys!
