I Am Falling

Synopsis:
As old age approaches and separation by death looms near, a married couple take their own lives. It is those left behind who have to endure the consequences and as the years pass their son questions whether his love can match the intensity of their passion. I am Falling explores the fickleness of memory and blends contemporary dance with a poignant narrative on ageing, love and loss. The staging is presented from varying angles with light and sound used to lead the audience's attention like a film camera, allowing the characters story to unfold from different perspectives simultaneously.

Notes:
Choreography by Anna Williams with text by Jenny Worton.

Through A Glass Darkly

Jenny Worton
A poignant and sensuous adaptation of the 1961 Oscar-winning film written and directed by Ingmar Bergman. Karin is a young wife, an older sister and an only daughter. In her kaleidoscopic internal world the boundaries between different realities blur and shift. Karin's family go on their annual holiday together. On a bleak, beautiful island, her husband, father and brother struggle over the best way to help her. As events spiral out of control, Karin realises that she must take command of her own destiny. This is the only adaptation of Through a Glass Darkly, and was personally approved by Bergman.

Notes:
adaptation by Jenny Worton from Ingmar Bergman
