The Game Research
by Jill Crovisier

Work-in-progress

Jill Crovisier began research on her new project THE GAME RESEARCH at the beginning of 2022. Since then, it has become a highly inclusive project which - through the lens of choreography, movement and sound design - explores the theme of games in different cultures, within different social groups and between individuals. In 2022-23, Jill has conducted THE GAME RESEARCH in Madrid, Luxembourg, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and now in Tipperary. During this period, the artist has worked with groups of professional and non-professional dancers and individuals. This resulted in short live performances, short dance films, experimental sound scores and community building events. The culminating chapter will be THE GAME – GRAND FINALE which will premier in February 2025.

This showcase of THE GAME RESEARCH was supported by two weeks of research and creation at Tipperary Dance as part of Tipperary Dance’s International Exchange Programme, in this case in collaboration with TROIS C-L Centre de Création Chorégraphique Luxembourgeois.

Sentient
by Liz Roche

Work-in-progress

Sentient by Liz Roche is a collaboration with the composer/saxophonist Nick Roth working with renowned ondes Martenot player, Nathalie Forget. This work explores a comment in Samuel Beckett's Molloy, where he admits his wonder, and also his ‘unknowing’, at the dancing communication of bees.

In a space somewhere between social urgency and the wonder of nature, Sentient offers a new interpretation of what it is as a human being to be only one part of our natural world in its vast communicative complexities. The work travels through three atmospheres; exploring vibration, language, and group communication, with the performers adapting collectively to these changing environments.
