PROJECTS IN DEVELOPMENT

SENSE OF CENTRE

Through dance, choreography, objects, film and projection, Sense of Centre explores our primal longing and need for home, our increasing sense of loneliness and isolation and the longing for connection to others by imagining how the body can be a home and a vehicle to remedy and explore these subjects. In a world that seems rush by, is fractured and breaking apart, Sense of Centre is a moving and powerful return to the simplicity of nature, the moving body and the importance of belonging and connecting to our world. It is a journey back to the reliability and simplicity of the body. To our centre of gravity. To ourselves. To home.

Concept, choreography and direction: Jack Webb
Music: Jack Webb
Producers: Feral (Jill Smith and Kathryn Boyle)

​Research and development periods supported by Creative Scotland, Dance Base, ARTICA Svalbard and City Moves Dance Agency.
Sense of Centre is currently in development and is due to be part of the Made in Scotland Showcase in 2021.



​79 SPACES

79 Spaces is a work for an intergenerational group of people between the ages of 20 and 70 years old/young. ​79 is a rough average of the age that humans could live to be. Working with this sense of time as a guide for a new work, 79 Spaces explores choreography and movement methodologies that explore life in the in between spaces, the value of time, how much time we have left, how much we've wasted and as we grow older how our sense of time changes. This work is part of and informed by Jack's current body of work exploring choreographic strategies that bring people together, paying close attention to the importance of support networks, community, connection, disconnection, isolation, loneliness, care of oneself and others and the never ending search for shared connection and its transformative effects.

​Concept, choreography and direction: Jack Webb
Music and text: Aidan Moffat
Initial research and development supported by Creative Scotland and Dance Base, Edinburgh
