If These Walls...

2020

A 25min performance that dives into modes of isolation, surges of communal awakening, and sharing of dance that is deeply embedded in the pursuit of our regeneration and sustainability.

If These Walls… is a brand new site-specific dance work created by our dear friend and acclaimed choreographer Claire O'Neil and developed especially for Footnote's 35th birthday year. If These Walls… enlivened the hidden courtyard behind Footnote’s current home on Cuba St with lush movement by our incredible Footnote company members, sound design by award-winning composer Jason Wright and lighting by renowned designer Marcus Mcshane.
