‘Ordinary Grief’ R&D cont’d.

Phew! We recently finished our R&D for ‘Ordinary Grief’ supported by Arts Council England.

We spent week 1 at The Point, Eastleigh (where we’re chuffed to bits to announce that we’ve joined the cohort of HOME artists) followed by  a ‘work in progress’ sharing in partnership with Fabrica Gallery and South East Dance.

Directed by Fin Walker, with writing by Ed Harris and with performers Ruth Janssen, Lee Clayden and Lindsey Butcher, ‘Ordinary Grief’ explores the human condition of loss and aims to bring focus and elicit conversation around this rarely discussed topic offering a visceral experience that legitimises the emotional one.

Watch this space for updates on how this exciting project will develop.
