This looks ace folks with our very own Holly!!
Touring this Autumn, Half Light invites you to awaken your senses and tune in to a reality where movement is revealed by sound.
Telling the story of a mother and boy, of a storm and a sunrise, of love, protection and letting go
Part biographical, part fiction, Half Light draws upon Holly Thomas’ lived experience of visual impairment and parenting to unmask a multi-generational story about the courage it takes to send your child into a world that may not always understand.
Designed to be experienced without the need for separate Audio Description, Half Light merges dance and storytelling with immersive sound design.
Saturday 4 October, PDSW, Bournemouth
Tuesday 28 October, The Place, London
Friday 14 November, Arnolfini, Bristol
Two shows per day plus Touch Tours at all venues
“Half Light combines a delicacy of means with deeply considered underlying principles. A dance piece, a sound piece, a piece of narrative performance – and an inclusive audience experience which feels almost healing”. Phil Owen, Producer, Arnolfini
ID: A tour poster with dates as above and the words ‘Immerse yourself in a word where sight is not assumed’. Four performers wearing soft pastel tones walk purposefully towards the camera in unison, each with one arm extended in front of them, portable bluetooth speakers in the palms of their hands.
