Grin Mele Broomes
A contemporary performance of sound, visuals and choreography subverting hyper-sexualised notions of African and Caribbean dances. A masquerade of sculptures where body, costume and lighting unite, embedded in a pulsating soundscore, a thematic autobiographical story with no words.
“Costumes, designed by Zephyr Liddell, are striking, particularly in their interplay with Dav Bernard’s lighting design.” (Stage Show, DIG, 2019)
