Last chance to see De Mentis at Chisenhale Dance Space. The online box office is now closed but tickets will be available at the door at £8. Join us for drinks at the Victoria pub on Grove Road after the performance from 8.30pm for a chance to meet the artists and share your reflections.
Audience feedback so far….
Congratulations! It was a moving experience last night…The embodiment of beauty, emotion and humanity.
I was left with a warm feeling.
An emptiness that was intense and meaningful.
When the dancers came together at the end I thought I was going to burst out crying.
It was so natural I almost forgot it was a dance show.
Very cleverly done…never a dull moment.
I could see the dancer’s stories in the performance…it was reassuring to know that they were really processing the material and not just ‘putting it on’.
The words were beautiful…not too much not too little and I loved the poem at the end.
It was very touching…my mother died of Alzheimer’s.
Very sensitively done and I could see it was a lived experience from choreography to performance.
You should open it to a bigger audience.
There was so much going on that it became too much to process…then I realised that this is what happens in reality in a setting like this and made me think about what we choose to see.
We look forward to seeing you there!
