(www.chapter.org) http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/2010/jan/23/theatre-previews-the-guide “..takes the spectator to another time and place...beautiful and powerful performances.” Duarte da Silva. Evora Festival, Portugal. Preview performance of TOLD, 2009. Two figures, two lives, multiple time spaces: TOLD BY THE WIND is a new performance of movement and text that ‘dances’ an inner landscape. Inspired by East Asian and ‘post-dramatic’ aesthetics, stories are evoked and told by embodied silences, splintered interactions, and slowed down motion. Transformative and multi-layered, TOLD is informed by Japanese Theatre of Quietude and String Theory [Quantum physics]. Intimate and meditative, it is a requiem for the unseen; a poignant duet for two figures who never physically meet. TOLD BY THE WIND is created by an award-winning team of Wales-based artists: Kaite O’Reilly (peeling; The Almond and the Seahorse; forthcoming Persians with National Theatre Wales); performer Jo Shapland ((in)scape; forthcoming Dance for Neanderthal); and director/performer Phillip Zarrilli (The Beckett Project, Director of The Almond and the Seahorse), with lighting design by Ace McCarron. A talk back session after the performance on 5th Fabruary. ______________ To join, leave or suspend list postings, visit www.scudd.org.uk/list ______________
