Abstract / Summary

This is a chapter of conversations, thoughts, and images that have arisen from within the choreographic process that became Passage for Par— a site-specific performance by Rosemary Lee with assitant choreographer Ruth Pethybridge performed in the summer of 2018. Passage for Par was commissioned by the Cornubian Arts and Science Trust (CAST) for the Groundwork program that bought international art to Cornwall in the South West of the UK.
The chapter takes as premise the dancers voice as central to interpretations of the work, using the experience of performers as a basis for understanding concepts of landscape, resiliance and female solidarity. The writing culminates in a conversational format between the two choreographers, a dialogue which was part of the creative process itself.
