Sepia; a small festival of dance: April - July 09

As part of the celebrations of the bi-centenary of the birth of Charles Darwin in Shrewsbury, the town of his birth, Blue Eyed Soul delivered a small festival of dance.

Be-Longing group searching

“Total integration of the difference between the performers, so it was like an orchestra, each person adding their own, but being part of a whole”

- Be-Longing Audience Feedback

TAKE; a dance in the park

“What a beautiful experience. Such lyrical, joyful contemplation”

- TAKE Audience Feedback

We worked closely with Shropshire Archives to research the history of people and places, and ran workshops, an exhibtion of images and words mapping the project at Theatre Severn, performed an aerial trio TAKE; a dance in the park in the Quarry Park, and inclusive community performance Be-Longing at Theatre Severn.

Take a look at the clips below from Be-Longing, including footage from Shropshire Archives that was projected in the performance, and Take; a dance in the park at the Shift Time festival.
