H2 Dance – Fest en Fest: Strangers and Others

The Albany, Outer London

About the Show

Part of Fest en Fest – A Nordic & UK Choreography Festival. Invited to look, touch, assume and judge, the audience choose how to respond to instructions, placing themselves into lines, groups and pairs. Wearing headphones and witnessed only by the choreographers, they use appearance, physicality and behaviour as a guide to negotiate each other as they cooperate in silence. Immersed in light and sound the space of the theatre frames the questions; who takes responsibility and when do actions have consequences? In Strangers & Others Hanna and Heidi explore socialization, tolerance, autonomy and exposure.
