Living Water- New Poetic Performances
Join us for a special evening as we premiere our three new poetry-led performance commissions in association with National Theatre of Scotland. Developed on the theme of ‘living water’ – with inspiration drawn from Nan Shepherd’s poem The Hill Burns – these three performances explicitly explore poetry in conversation with other artistic disciplines.
The newly devised pieces will showcase inventive cross-disciplinary work ranging from clowning to electronica with new performances from David McNeish and Ruxy Cantir, Tim Tim Cheng and Alexandra Shrinivas, and Raymond Wilson and Ross Somerville.
This event will be BSL interpreted.
