The latest offering by Weave Movement Theatre, Sense of Place is an exploration of the spaces and places in our hearts, minds, memories and everyday reality through physical theatre, soundscape, and visual projections.
Places can become alien as people stray, as our cities are carelessly knocked down and rebuilt before our eyes. Even our home planet can be made inhospitable as we lose a sense of our place in it.
Featuring the Weave Movement Theatre Ensemble, Sense of Place probes our senses to discover untold stories. What place does this smell evoke, this sound, this sight? A comment offered through transient structures built in air, words, images, and movement, Sense of Place is a surprising, witty, and highly comical new work from this renowned company – running for a very limited time this August at Dancehouse.
Launching in 1997, Weave Movement Theatre are a bold, diverse dance/theatre company made up of disabled and non-disabled performing artists. Committed to providing high level training opportunities and powerful performances, they aim to challenge conventions and subvert audiences’ expectations, paving the way for inclusive practices to become the norm. Making the stage an area for dynamic and exploratory practice – a space to challenge power and celebrate movement.
