In 2016, I produced the work of Paul Michael Henry which included the development of SHRIMP DANCE.
Coupled with (consensual) audience participation and audiovisual presentation of scientific research findings to probe the emotional logic of depression, late capitalism and austerity, SHRIMP DANCE explored what it means to be human in today's current political and social climate. The work aimed to pass through the darkest places of human psychology to a space of deep connection with each other and our environment, with the unlikely aid of the humble shrimp.
SHRIMP DANCE had it's first stage of development in October 2016 with the kind support of Dance Base and Creative Scotland.
