A cathartic attempt to give life to the traumas that trap us, releasing them as creatures into a shadowy world. With sculptured light and visceral movement driven by electronic soundscore.
Using memories sucked from the choreographer’s experience of major spinal surgery, warped through the surreal minds of illustrator Simon Gardner and composers Low Island, Burnt Out serves to translate extraordinary physical experiences into quantifiable living things. Evolved using illustration, composition and movement into a creature and it’s world, four dancers now deliver the species in full chaotic glory. For a lightyear second this remarkable team of multidisciplinary artists bring another world briefly into view.
