Sarah Baltzinger & Isaiah Wilson / MEGASTRUCTURE
The Braithwaite Hall 8.30pm
MEGASTRUCTURE is a puzzle, a dance duet whose pieces are constantly being dismantled, tested and reinvented. Co-creators and performers Sarah Baltzinger and Isaiah Wilson draw on their bodies to deconstruct the traditional format of dance pieces. What does the audience expect in a performance? What is necessary to create? Without music or other distractions, MEGASTRUCTURE is both an immersive experience and a captivating performance.
“a vast vocabulary of unique-looking movements, create a mesmerizing performance: often violent, at times whimsical, but always inventive.” Marina Srnka, Springback Magazine
Elise Antonia and Marlon Matenhese / Paradigm
Studio 55 7.30pm
Paradigm unfolds as a miraculous story based on the true events of a young woman’s experience maturing into her womanhood. Venturing away from everything she thought she knew, she is faced with unimaginable choices to make and profusely battles with her moral compass in search for an opportunity to reset the timeline.
Elise ‘Hummingbird’ Antonia and Marlon ‘Cosmic’ Matenhese are FLOCK members of award-winning Hip Hop Architects BirdGang. Paradigm was developed during BirdGang's Arts Council England funded HATCHWORK24 programme and first performed at Stanley Arts.
