I collaborated with Scarabeus Aerial Theatre and Candoco Dance Company to create Heartland, a story of imprisonment and freedom, and the longing for the lands of home and heart – based on the Minotaur/Icarus legends. The show toured six outdoor festivals in 2011, playing in my home town of Brighton as well as in Trafalgar Square, London.
We then re-designed the show to be site specific to celebrate the opening of Platform at the old Hornsey Road Baths, London N7. For this version we commissioned a new, young composer Jude Obermuller to write music for the ‘Crossing Song’ (as the audience walked to the final site) and then a reprise in ‘Climb to the Sky’ for the finale.
