Studio Performance by Steve Batts and Shahar Dor
Identity Parade
by Steve Batts and Shahar Dor
Sunday 21st February at 6pm
In the Echo Echo Dance Studio
Admission £3
Artistic Director of Echo Echo, Steve Batts will collaborate with Director of Artness, Shahar Dor this February.
The duo will spend a week in Derry exploring and creating- with neither dancer knowing where they will end up or what will happen. Batts and Dor will then perform this material in a movement and image-based theatrical piece in the Echo Echo Dance Studio on Sunday 21st February.
Steve Batts said: " We intend to fall off the edge into the creative unknown. Shahar walks forwards, directly, looking for the edge- brave. Me, I walk backwards looking at the view of where I have been- distracting myself from the knowledge that behind me, sooner or later, is the edge of the chasm where I fully intend to plummet."
Steve and Shahar have worked and performed together periodically since 2000 including projects in Israel with Improbiza and in Ireland with Bed of Roses in Portadown.
Both men have a reputation for fearless improvisation so audiences can expect the unexpected.
