Enjoy and support the UK contemporary dance artists Pett|Clausen-Knight and A Space Left Blank – Live performance with video interaction + post show talk – here.
Choreography & performance: Pett & Travis Clausen-Knight
Tickets here or sold at Derida Dance Centre on the day of the performance
When: Friday, 17 November 2023 from 19:30
Where: Derida Dance Center
After the performance, there will be a conversation with the artists, moderated by a psychologist and a social worker who will have observed Pett|Clausen-Knight’s workshop for Ukrainian refugees. A topic of discussion will be how dance and the arts can offer a means to connect with ourselves, help us express what we feel on a deeper level, and connect us to those around us.
Pett|Clausen-Knight is a creative dynamo for multi-award winning choreographers & dancers James Pett & Travis Clausen-Knight. Their collaboration began during their time dancing with Wayne McGregor (2013-2019).
Pushing the boundaries of contemporary dance, the British choreographers have crafted sensitively provocative creations stimulated through their intensely powerful visual language.
Everyday we are used to expressing ourselves through words, gestures, but also the digital world and social media: what if we stop and try to communicate and express ourselves through movement?
The project is realised in collaboration and with the support of the British Council in Bulgaria, in partnership with Derida Dance Center and is supported by the National “Culture” Fund.
