Location: Birmingham

Venue: Patrick Studio

A BEGINNING is an immersive journey from darkness to light, though live vocal music and choreography.

5 dancers/singers, equipped with portable lights, explore the relationship between movement, voice and light.

Where choreography meets musical composition, this piece dissociates the body that sings from the body that moves.

They develop a physical and movement practice that allows them to embody two movements in a single body; the movement that sounds (singing) and the movement that is seen.

A Beginning #16161D constructs a theatrical narrative about the eternal dialectic between the individual and the collective, in order to imagine new ways of relating.

A BEGINNING #16161D is an intelligent piece, but it is much more than that; it is a magical, mystical work that avoids clichés and trends, allowing us to enjoy darkness and light as if the universe were taking shape at that precise moment.
