‘Make way for the personalities who will (re)make the headlines! Bis repetita! After 2011, the journalists of Le Quotidien have once again taken up the challenge of selecting the people who will rule the headlines in the coming decade.

First there were two stunning solos (SIXFOLD and FELT), then HEAR EYES MOVE, a landmark (and applauded) work. Finally, her ‘Invisible Dances’, a global invitation to break free from pandemic sclerosis. Elisabeth Schilling is constantly innovating, her choreographies weaving a subtle link with all other art forms. This boldness and imagination was rewarded two months ago by the Lëtzeburger Danzprais. A ‘multiple body’ that should continue to spread in the coming years.’

11am to 12noon, Tuesday 14 September

Online via Zoom

Join us for a morning of conversation with Elisabeth Schilling in the middle of their Invisible Dances tour of Scotland. Fresh from live dates in Shetland, Elisabeth will be in conversation with dance artist Kathryn Gordon about how this work manifested itself during the pandemic as a way to promote participatory, yet safe, art to inspire and connect people all over the world who found themselves in mutual solitude.

The Invisible Dances is a global initiative inspired by the restrictions put upon theatres and cultural workers during the Covid-19 crisis. Respecting all local guidelines, the concept invites dance artists to meet for an unannounced performance at night. They make their way dancing through the city followed by so-called tracers who visualise the dance with natural materials or environmentally friendly and biodegradable chalk spray that washes away with the next rain.

During the session Elisabeth will share some images and film footage of the work and there will be time to ask questions and open out to a conversation around the process.

This event will take place on Zoom and can be booked by emailing sara@theworkroom.org.uk.

This session will be auto captioned by Otter.AI, BSL interpreatation can be requested by emailing sara@theworkroom.org.uk by 7 September.
