Family Festival There’s also plenty going on for our littlest audience members, including Landscapes – which takes place in a wonderful canvas dome; and Jumping Mouse - a fun-packed adventure for the whole family.

Pre-Festival Warm Up

Charles Linehan Company presents

The Fault Index and The Clearing Wednesday 11th May 7.30pm

Following creation time spent at The Point, Charles Linehan Company returns to present the premiere of a new work, The Fault Index, as part of a double bill with The Clearing. Each work displays the understated eloquence and elegance for which the company is acclaimed. The Fault Index is a celebration of isolated events, a series of connected and unconnected incidents presented in a different order for each performance. At its heart are three ensemble pieces that weave together disparate and independent choreographic elements in a percussive and spirited tour de force.

Slow transformations evolve within a complex weave of interlocking melodies, off-rhythms and beautiful sonorities. Tickets: £12 Conc. £10 In association with South East Dance & The Point, Eastleigh

The Clearing features four dancers including long-term collaborators Rahel Vonmoos and Greig Cooke, with a commissioned score by Richard Skelton.

“As Linehan has proven for over a decade now the best things often come in the least hyped packages” – The Observer

Pre-Festival Warm Up

Yael Flexer & Nic Sandiland/Dance and Digital Works

The Living Room Wednesday 18th May 7.30pm

The Living Room is an intimate dance set in what appears to be the bare bones of a living or rehearsal room. The performers interfere or seemingly assist each other’s solo moment, together inhabiting an imagined domestic space. The work cuts intricate movement with informal banter and wry humour, as the performers struggle to live through another show. Yael Flexer’s distinctive choreography effortlessly intertwines witty delivery with dance that is fast paced and emotionally driven. Music is by Nye Parry and cellist Karni Postel.

Lighting is by Michael Mannion and dramaturgy by artist Gary Stevens. A short curtain raiser will be performed by Hampshire Youth Dance Company who worked with Yael Flexer’s company for four days. The piece is based on the choreographic process and materials from The Living Room. Tickets: £12 Conc. £10 www.yaelflexer.com
