Charlie Hendren Dance Theatre
A Light in the Backwoods

How long could you spend alone?

This enigmatic solo invites us into the world of a hermit. Using dance, text and live music, it tenderly explores a life of solitude.

Charlie Hendren is a dancer/actor/musician and choreographer. He graduated from London Contemporary Dance School in 2012 and has been performing and creating work for both himself and dance/theatre companies ever since.

A Light in the Backwoods is an intimate solo that tenderly invites us into the life of a hermit. It follows a single character who lives alone and begins to be taunted by memories and characters from his past. He navigates his way through landscapes, dreams and visions whilst an array of soundscapes and musical compositions develop on stage. Eventually he must question the cost of his chosen life.
