Edinburgh college: Traverse Theatre

YCNEGREME
Urban flotsam floats, a mercurial rush, a relentless shimmering grief. Stitched into a heart worn on the sleeve. This is urgent. This is an emergency service. In this project Edinburgh College 4th year Ba(hons) performance students have worked with Choreographer Emma Lewis-Jones to discover motifs for moving through emergency. Their repertoire draws from an enquiry into self-soothing and choreographic interpretations of collective action and mourning rituals.

Programme note for performance at Traverse Theatre on Saturday 11th January 2025, after making a piece in a week at Dance Base.
