FIRST WEEK OF R&D

We started off our research and development by bringing the whole Phobia team together for the first time. Brilliant to have such a great bunch of creative people in one room!
The week was all about generating ideas and exploring in what way the three disciplines, sound, dance and words, can intersect. We focused on overall structure, asking “What does the piece want to be?”. We don’t have an answer yet.
We talked a lot, we danced, we played, improvising around various aspects of the phobia experience.
We have come out of the week with some good ideas and a lot of questions marks. Loads to think about, loads to write, loads to compose, loads to choreograph…
