Deep Time Moving brings together dance and geology in a playful exploration of place and environment: how might an embodied imagining of the long distant past help us to imagine the new futures we need?
Expect sounds from out on the cliffs and under the Atlantic Ocean, costumes fit for the walking holidays of your dreams, and exquisite movement inspired by rocks, water and rural rituals. There will be an informal opportunity to discuss the ideas and processes that have informed the performance, after the show
This performance is part of Tinner's Moon Festival at Ashburton Arts
