Moments
IN DEVELOPMENT IN 2023/24
About Moments
'I give it (grandfather's watch) to you not that you may remember time, but that you might forget it now and then for a moment and not spend all your breath trying to conquer it.' William Faulkner, The Sound and the Fury
Part TED Talk, part Theatrical Performance with our trademark style combining striking imagery and action with original live music, Moments sits at the intersection of our training and theatre making activities. It creates a space for us to reflect, understand and explain what we do as we do it.
After more than 13 years of working together as Theatre Re, making 6 shows and touring to 16 countries across 3 continents, we are taking a moment to stop, question and re-evaluate our relationship to success and time: Why do we do what we do, why is it important and why should we keep doing it?
Ultimately, Moments is about attentiveness; attentiveness to magic in the making of new work; attentiveness to poetry in our everyday; attentiveness to moment by moment existence; attentiveness to life as we live it.
The development of this new project is funded by Arts Council England, co-commissioned by London International Mime Festival, and supported by The Point Eastleigh, Shoreditch Town Hall, The Lowry Salford and University of York. It will take place over a number of months in 2023 and 2024.
