Two rising female choreographers share personal stories of illness, love and loss in a moving and inspiring double bill. From the internal chaos of a body to the emotional conflicts within a family, both works tap into moments in life that are simply not expressible in speech.

Co-commissioned by Northern School of Contemporary Dance, Birmingham Dance Xchange and The Place, with support from Leeds Dance Partnership.

Falling Family by Yukiko Masui

“Certainly one to watch for the future.”

Polly Risbridger, Director, East London Dance

Falling Family is a visceral dance piece which explores those moments in family life that defy verbalisation. It taps into that dark, conflicted, emotional space that cracks open when we encounter a loved one’s illness, mental breakdown or even death. Based on a real Japanese family’s story where one issue leads to another.

The Ephemeral Life of an Octopus by Léa Tirabasso

The Ephemeral Life of an Octopus is absurd and grotesque, playful and liberating. It questions the strangeness of having a body: healthy and vigorous, suffering and damaged, punctured and probed, wild and animalistic. Based on the choreographer’s personal experience of ovarian cancer, the piece is inspired by studies of the evolution of cancer cells and the lived experience of illness.
