Am I Dreaming

Performances at St Donat’s Arts Centre, Barry Memorial Hall, Chapter Arts Centre and The Riverfront

Young people in years 5 and 6 are being invited take part in a storytelling/dance workshop followed by a performance of Am I Dreaming? in one of these four venues. “Am I dreaming?” fuses Japanese ghost stories, gothic and punk aesthetics to create a dynamic, offbeat and spooky celebration of dance. 

Lucy is exhausted. It’s late but she’s determined to stay awake. She blinks hard and pinches herself but slowly and surely her eyes get heavy….
AM I DREAMING? explores the strange world between sleep and waking where nothing is as it seems.

“I have never before heard so many people laughing uncontrollably at a dance performance... it is boldly self-deprecating. Lovingly and with great skill, Treays and Lewis send up many stock conventions of modern dance and performance art, while exploring the process of storytelling.”
Rebecca Nesvett, Western Mail on Is This It?

Touring to Years 5 + 6  14th June – 9th July 2010
