Sat 26th July, 7.30pm, £13 The Compound, 161 Bexhill road, St.Leonards on Sea, TN38 8BG   The Hunter is a Butoh-inspired dance performance exploring the archetype of the hunter - one who stands as a guardian between civilisation and the untamed wild. Through the dual act of stalking and being stalked, hunter and prey become indistinguishable, blurring boundaries and roles. The piece becomes a visceral ritual, dissolving the human presence into stillness and shadow.

thu 3rd - sun 6th Apr 2025, £200/£180 The workshop combines studio and outdoor practice. Submerged in the landscape we will explore the terrain, rhythm and pace of Combe Valley in a small group. Outdoor practice directly engages with nature where the boundaries of life & death become more fluid and the senses are more stimulated whereas studio time focuses on body awareness drawn from somatic practice. Working in groups and pairs and individuals we will work towards performance making.

Sun 7th July, 2-7pm, Chisenhale dance Space. Exploring the aspects of shadows and light through the lens of Japanese traditional eyes. “Lacquerware decorated in gold is not something to be seen in a brilliant light, to be taken in at a single glance; it should be left in the dark, a part here and a part there picked up by a fain light. Its florid patterns recede into the darkness, conjuring in an inexpressible aura of depth and mystery, of overtones but partly suggested.” photo Kaixiang Zhang
