Retellings by Hannah George
Retellings is a contemporary dance work combining geometric movement and juggling balls to explore the lives of two people. Moving in close proximity, the dancers weave around one another, passing and manipulating objects to create elusive narratives.
Accompanied by an original score by Sofia Roubati, dancers Anna Smith and Eli Forest Bryan move through shadow, silhouette and sculpted light. The work explores how connections shape us, bringing new versions of ourselves, our hidden facets and fragilities, to the surface. Like biological processes, these connections evolve and move us through life, just as the juggling balls move through
Choreographer: Hannah George
Composer: Sofia Roubati
Dancers: Anna Smith, Eli Forest Bryan
