Audience feedback from the shows sellout premiere

"Close your eyes
Caress your mind
And travel to a place beyond your frozen eyelids"

A show about home and belonging; taking a questioning and brutally honest look at the places where we live and the reasons that we live there. 35 people in a singing dialogue with dancer Emily Dobson, weave a story of the joys and hardships people face and the natural world they inhabit, “at the end of the line” in the far west of Cornwall.

Created in collaboration with The 50 Degrees Choir, musical director/composer Vicky Abbott and dancer Emily Dobson, this project has seen members of the choir and Vicky Abbott creating original songs for the first time since the choir’s inception, in an artistic exploration combining dance, music and words.

The show was created in collaboration with Pop Up Penzance and The Exchange Gallery, funded by Feast Cornwall.

The premiere took place at The Exchange Gallery in Penzance on the 10th of January 2015. The show was then shown in April 2015 during Giving Voice Festival organised by CPR at AMATA, Falmouth University.
