Choreographer Holly Blakey delves into the deeply personal and universal experience of loss and reinvention in the UK premiere of a double bill of new dance works; A Wound with Teeth & Phantom.
A Wound with Teeth is an excerpt from Blakey’s new full-length work Lo, in which she uses her own experience of forgetting, to create a work that questions our ability to remember. In a world that is sometimes terrifying and perverse, fighting for our own survival also means creating stories, and our own monsters and beasts.
In Phantom, Blakey also takes personal experience as a starting point, in this case her miscarriage, to explore with tenderness, honesty and strength what was a particularly painful episode of her personal journey.
