    Larvae follows on from our dance /movement showcase “M: Brio”, which we presented in September 2014 at the Riverfront Arts Centre, Newport. Larvae is the 2nd phase of our project “Metamorfoza” and based on the 4 stages of human development.

     

    Larvae is the story about our external world, reflected through our internal thoughts, feelings, dreams and memories which we experience through our lives. This dance and movement piece will focus on the internal changes reflecting our outward appearance, to build  a shape, structure, colour and pattern of the human body.

     

    Are we looking to or are we are looking from? What can we see as an individual, and what can we see as a group? How do we use that experience for our own development and wellbeing? Our environment is our reflection, what we are doing about that?  Are we limited in self- expression? Do we really need a frame or structures? Are we really independent?

     

    LARAVE will be performed  by nine of Theatr Ffynnon’s membership.

     

    A Q & A session will held post performance.
