Description

A celebration of our vulnerable and courageous existence, Solène melds dance, comedy, storytelling and theatre to ask – what happens in the end? Through a series of impassioned re-enactments of the funerals of those she's loved – as well as imagining her own – Solène attempts to conjure a better space to be with death, dying and loss. A heartfelt exploration of the death rituals we have; the ones lost and those that need invented. Joyously bringing us together to explore the role that dancing might play in healing. Programmed by Dance Base in collaboration with Assembly. MadeInScotlandShowcase.com

What a performance! Full of heart, humour and some deep reflections on death… and therefore life!
A mix of dance and theatre and stand up, Solène shared her reflections in an absolutely captivating way. I was blown away and crying by the end (but had also laughed plenty throughout!). You must see this show, if you ever lost anyone, anything or one day, someone loses you….!

A sublime performance from the beginning to the end... or should I say to ...the new beginning.
I was blown away. Solene's dance moves, expression, story telling .. the way she stages everything cannot leave you indifferent. It is full of humour. It is so emotional and very deep. It is just beautiful and unique.
