Sanity Part 1. EITHER OR Choreographed and danced by Sabine Klaus & Emma Snellgrove To the voice of Nicole Carter 3D Visual Artist: Iain Carter Idea, research, video & sound edit: Sabine Klaus Creation Editor Notes 'EITHER OR' brings together poetry and dance with sound and visual effects to portray the inner and outer ongoings of poet Nicole Carter who was diagnosed with bipolar disorder over 15 years ago after several severe spells of manic-depression. Those led her to dance busking in the street, running beyond the pain threshold and being homeless. Her true story and poems inspired Sabine Klaus and Emma Snellgrove to move in one and other ways mixed with 3D background imagery created by Iain Carter so the dancers can become one or two or EITHER OR.

Music: Low, 'Words'. Scene 3. Illusions Part 1. Excerpts From A Bigger Picture Choreographed by Emma Jayne Park Danced by Rebecca Cameron, Caitlynn Cummings and Emma Jayne Park Music: Murcof 'Unison', Four Tet 'Everything Is Alright', Bruno Sanfillipo Matthio Grasso 'Ambient Music' Video Editing Simon Persuad The development of this piece was supported by Dancebase, Edinburgh Notes ''We live together, we act on, and react to, one another; but always and in all circumstances we are by ourselves. The martyrs go hand in hand into the arena; they are crucified alone. Embraced, the lovers desperately try to fuse their insulated ecstasies into a single self-transcendence; in vain. By its very nature every embodied spirit is doomed to suffer and enjoy in solitude. Sensations, feelings, insights, fancies — all these are private and, except through symbols and at second hand, incommunicable. We can pool information about experiences, but never the experiences themselves. From family to nation, every human group is a society of island universes.'' Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception Part 2. Seeing with sequins in your eyes Choreographed by Hagit Yakira Danced by Scarlett Hiles, Tanya Hill, Holly Jackson-Walters, Camilla Luchun, Laura Tan, Amy Reid with Peter Lovatt Music: “Razzle Dazzle” by John Kander. Lyrics by Fred Ebb. INTERVAL (20 minutes) ACT 2 Scene 4. Obedience Part 1. A conversation: part1 Choreographed and danced by Hannah Buckley and Dwayne Antony Simms Music. 'Matera' by Rene Aubry. Acknowledgements. Hannah would like to thank her parents and sister for their continual support. Dwayne would like to thank Bea Udeh for her help and support. Notes A conversation: part 1 could be between two friends, or two strangers. It could be a moment of insanity or the sanest action possible. A conversation: part 1 is a response to three psychological studies that looked at bystander apathy, obedience and sanity. Part 2. Kitty Genovese Choreographed and danced by Scarlett Hiles, Tanya Hill, Camilla Luchun, Laura Tan and Amy Reid Music. Imma Be, by Black Eyed Peas Scene 5. Memory Part 1. Together (A solo) Choreographed and performed by Ruth Mills Searching for the future while reminded of the past. Music: Allegri 'Misereri mei', Gerry Campbell. Part 2. Eight Feet Choreographed and danced by Camilla Lochun, Tanya Hill, Scarlett Hiles and Peter Lovatt Part 3. Sunday Morning Choreography: Hagit Yakira Performers : Takeshi Matsumoto, Orley Quick, Cornelis Joubert, Hagit Yakira Producer : Maria Tsaousi Rehearsal Manager: Maika Klaukien Dramaturge: Yarit Dor Scenographer, Lighting Designer: Rachel E. Stanners Costume Makers: Cornelis Joubert, Berit Laageide Music: Tom James Scott Notes Inspired by the different origins of her peers, Hagit takes Sunday Morning to be the place of memories of childhood, of family, of home, and of fear of loss. Through evoking these memories (and feelings) she wishes to explore the emergence of individual identity, and at the same time the persistence of longing to belong. Acknowledgements We would like to thank Paul Upson and the University of Hertfordshire Arts Team, Howard Berry and the students on the BSc TV & Film course at the University of Hertfordshire, Sasha Kline, Peter Ford and Paul Johnathan for stage management.
