CANCELLED - Heart Strings
A physical theatre performance that will pull at audiences’ heart strings.
Inspired by the vulnerability we expose ourselves to through love, this beautiful and immersive work explores love in all its forms and the associated themes of courage and risk. ‘Heart Strings’ will take audiences on an emotional journey exploring love through the metaphor of the red string of fate – the theory that we are all connected to the people that we are destined to meet throughout our lives.
The production features original music by composer Ciaran Frame which is triggered live in response to the artists' movements and gestures. Using spatial sound and different musical controllers it creates an ever-changing soundtrack to the show exploring the relationship between movement, sound, and light.
