BeginAgain

Choreography: Zoe Scofield

BeginAgain is a stirring, poignant distillation on siblings, adolescent girls, the painful space between being a child and adulthood through the memory of their childhood. Who we are is never one consistent identity but rather a constantly and sometimes painful shifting, blurring. BeginAgain is a reminder of this internal struggle. A magical use of light, shadow and video projections against translucent veils and patterned screens make it almost impossible to distinguish the real from the illusion. Performed by three dancers and a local singer, the performance combines stunning video projections, paper cut walls and otherworldly music with a rigorous physicality to create a spell binding performance.
