Dreamers Dance
April 13, 2018
Dreamers Dance is a premiere of an ambitious, experimental, installation dance performance at ArtWork Atelier, Salford, Thursday 19th April at 8.45pm (performance start time, please arrive at least 15 minutes before).
Taking place at twilight to take us from the ‘real’ to the dream world, this one-night only performance brings together light and text artist Elisa Artesero, electronic music producer Caro C, choreographer Belinda Grantham, director Graham Hicks and dancers from UCEN.
Set around Artesero’s large-scale installation DREAMERS in the industrial setting of artist studios, ArtWork Atelier in Salford, a small selection of viewers will be taken through from sleep into dream, a dance in the liminal space of twilight to the edge of night.
Artesero has designed the production to work with the fading twilight in her lighting design, with a new musical score produced by Caro C supporting the original choreography by Grantham, Hicks, and the 10 young dancers.
This is a FREE event, but spaces are limited, so booking is essential https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/venue/FKDLMF
Note the main performance is at 8.45pm to work together with the fading twilight, the 7pm option is mainly for students or others who cannot make the main performance. Please arrive at least 15 minutes before for a short introduction and to ensure everyone is in place for a prompt start.
Access: The site-specific nature of this performance, in a building set for demolition, means that it is not fully accessible to wheelchair users. Stairs access the top floor space, and unfortunately there is no passenger lift.
Here’s a little teaser video with some of Caro’s music:
