Echo Echo's performance season continues with a small tour of the North West of Ireland and the return of the beautifully warm and poetic production Ripple Affect.
Directed by the company's full time Artistic Director, Steve Batts, the show features five international dancers Ayesha Mailey, Emily Welther, Maite Larraneta, Siobhan Simpson and Leilani Weis. Alongside breathtaking music performed live by the awesome Henry Girls.
Echo Echo's Ripple Affect was last toured in early 2009 when it accrued the company's highest audience figures to date.
"This is a diverse piece of contemporary dance with a simple idea at its core - the power of touch and how a hug can affect and resonate. A simple, affectionate embrace like the humble hug can go a long, long way, as Ripple Affect so eloquently proves."Culture Northern Ireland.
