HANG ON & PARADISE DANCE HALL (DANCE DOUBLE BILL)

Tickets: 15

DANCE DOUBLE BILL

Two very diverse Irish dance artists present an energetic and accessible double bill. Contemporary dance for the Youtube generation.

HANG ON

Can you hang on? Do you feel you are constantly running on empty? Do you feel that no matter how much you do, that life may always remain relentless? Should we fight this pulse of time or just – Hang On?

Performed by two outstanding dancers, this powerful show takes place on the ground and in the air. Staged to original live music and video art, it is highly physical, often raw, sometimes sensual and always real. Fidget Feet are doing what they do best – fusing gravity-defying aerial circus skills with dance.

Hang On was commissioned by Westmeath County Council and Backstage Theatre supported by Shawbrook, Dance Ireland and premiered at Longford Dance Festival April 2010.

PARADISE DANCE HALL

It ends with a mysterious bruise, a longdistance dance, and a swallow tattoo to guide you. It starts with the people you haunt, and the traces of those who left without explanation. It’s a live performance, with under-thecounter true stories. It’s a blind date, with music to fill those awkward silences. It’s dance for people who don’t like dance. It’s a guilty pleasure. It will not be sentimental, but it might be beautiful. It could get a bit x-rated. There may even be a slow-set. But whatever happens, you will not go home alone.
