Independance 4

“richly varied, technically demanding work that the group perform superbly” The Herald

INDEPEN-DANCE 4 is an ensemble of four young dancers – Hayley Earlam, Adam Sloan, Kelly McCartney and Neil Price. They are back on the road in March and April with their much acclaimed triple bill of work – Some of the Moments We Haven’t Forgotten choreographed by Christine Devaney with music composed and performed live by cellist Robin Mason; Drifting directed by Ramesh Meyyappan with music by the award-winning composer David Paul Jones; and Goldfish choreographed by Lucy Bennett and Chris Pavia of Stopgap Dance Company.

Goldfish

Choreographers: Lucy Bennett and Chris Pavia (StopGap)

Watching the world through his aquarium, Owen Moon’s imagination begins to seep into his everyday life.

When reality starts to shake his dream world, Owen submerges himself deeper into a fantasy full of fish, space and MTV.

Drifting

Choreographer/Director Ramesh Meyyappan
Music composed by David Paul Jones
Devised by Hayley Earlam, Adam Sloan, Neil Price and Kelly McCartney

A boy falls in and out of sleep, and as his sleep becomes deeper and longer, the stresses and strains take their toll, and his family begin to drift apart.

Some Of The Moments We Haven’t Forgotten

“Dreaming ties all mankind together,” Jack Kerouac
Choreographer/Director Christine Devaney
Music composed and played by Robin Mason
Devised by Christine Devaney, Robin Mason, Hayley Earlam, Adam Sloan, Neil Price and Kelly McCartney

From nothing but listening and breathing together, unfolds a series of moments, that have no meaning until you watch and share these moments. This work evolved through playing and dreaming together.

Touring across Scotland, the triple bill opens on Friday 20 March in Mull and finishes at the School of Contemporary Dance in Dundee on Monday 6 April.
