A event held at The Mount Without on Thursday 19th May. The event starts at 19:00.
*bbb*Mayfest and IMPERMANENCE present Communion: Night One*/bbb*
A double-bill of bold new performance and dance, followed by a chance to come and dance with spirits down in the crypt with DJs until late.
*bbb*'The Two Day Show' by Jane Mason & friends*/bbb*
Performance time: 7pm
"This evening comes out of a need to be with others, at a time when it's hard to imagine the future, and it's hard to be certain of anything at all."
Over two days, six artists from across disciplines will come together to explore what is possible to do and say between them, to experience what happens when different bodies, minds and hearts pay attention to the moment.
Jane Mason is joined by cherished collaborators old and new: Dominic Coleman, Amanda Lawrence, David Williams, Joff Winterhart and Gary Winters.
'The Two Day Show' is a celebration of liveness, and a choreographic leap of faith.
Performed for one night only, never to be repeated.

Performance time: 9:30pm
‘Space Telling: The Crypt’ is a site specific sound piece consisting of vocals and live recording of the space through daily objects and instruments. It is a sonic response to ‘Spotting Masks’, a moving image work by Joan Low on the attempts of masking industrial and urban sounds through the sound waves of installed nature in the city. This performance reconstructs a landscape through sound, space telling, and the resonance of the body.
The work is part of Li’s work series, ‘Space Telling: Telling Space’, an on-going project that take place in various locations and situations, responding to and creating sonic work in a site-specific and improvisational manner.

Overlooking the city from the slopes of St Michael’s Hill, the ruined beauty of this ancient church-turned-creative space is the perfect setting for Communion: a series of bold new dance, performance and late night offerings. In collaboration with IMPERMANENCE at their new home - The Mount Without - Mayfest brings you some tasty treats and a chance to let your hair down.
