Goat Island (USA)
Work-in-progress
Introduced by Simon Jones, reader in performance at Bristol University
This seminal performance company returns to Bristol with their eighth performance work. Starting with the question, How do you repair?, the work mines a wealth of diverse sources for its dance/movement sequences, theatrical scenes and spoken texts, including The Wind (a silent film from 1928), the history of the teaching of the alphabet in America, the time/space patterns of the fibonacci sequence spiral, the poetry of Paul Celan, and household repair manuals and diagrams. The piece, scheduled for completion in 2004, will question our place in a damaged world and our aptitude at repairing it.
£6.00 / £4.00 concessions
