A powerful evening of five dance works created by the highly skilled and talented dancers from Hofesh Shechter Company on 18th June at The Place. Following drawings during rehearsals for Political Mother and paintings inspired by his choreography, Hofesh Shechter said of me “I am impressed with how Sally is able to capture not only the movements but also the atmosphere of my work”.
I hope the company dancers feel the same way. Below are a selection of my drawings of their dances.
15 Minutes of Infinity. Choreographer, Maeva Berthelot. Performers, Maeva Berthelot, Fred Cave, Thomas Hauser
Yesterday’s Bird. Choreographer, Jason Jacobs. Performers, Jason Jacobs and Andrew Maddick
Noble Thinking. Choreographer, Sita Ostheimer. Performers, Hannah Shepherd, Vit Bartak
No Face. Choreographer and Performer, Chien-Ming Chang
Holding Dead. Choreographer Philip Hulford. Performers, Philip Hulford, James Finnemore
I’m looking forward to seeing Political Mother The Choreographer’s Cut at Sadler’s Wells (12 – 16 July), performed by Hofesh Shechter Company. New sketches coming soon, meanwhile see drawings of Political Mother created during rehearsals in Brighton last year.
