About the Event
Neoteric Dance company will be sharing ‘The flow that connects us’ to the community of Lynton and Lynmouth on Saturday 15th June 2019. This original and unique one off dance site specific piece has been created in connection with Global Water Dances; an organization that annually supports Choreographers and dancers to lead water based dance event across the globe, sharing issues and stories that are connected to water.
‘The flow that connects us’ will be exploring the devastating impact flooding can have on a small community and the ripple affect it can leave behind. This will be coupled with the celebration of water and sharing the beauty that the streams, waterfalls and sea brings to the towns of Lynton and Lynmouth.
Neoteric Dance Company will share ‘The flow that connects us’ to locals and visitors of the beautiful and picturesque town at 3pm on Saturday 15th June 2019, with a possible second showing later in the evening. It is hoped that the ‘Lynmouth Flood Memorial Hall’ and the Royal National Lifeboat Association will connect with the dance work, to offer a short talk before or after the performance.
‘The flow that connects us’ will be recorded and shared via social media and on the Global Water Dances site, so that audience who cannot attend the events across the globe can still be a part of something powerful and moving.
