T01841396653Fest Live is a selection of extracts of new and exciting work from local, national & international artists, featuring: Hilary Chaplain- Classically Trained Artistes - A duo who struggle to maintain their dignity in the face of all odds from one of the USA's foremost physical comediennes. Mary Pearson- FoMO, mofos! (Fear of Missing Out, motherf***ers!) - Pervasive anxiety, exponentially compounded by social media, that something better is always happening somewhere else. New solo based on 5 duets. Irreverent Sideshows-Reservoir Ducks, ruffles the feathers of Tarantino's chauvinistic tipping scene from his iconic film 'Reservoir Dogs', an investigative and playful reading of popular culture. Joanne Tremarco (2016 MDI/Physical Fest Bursary award) - Midwives bring us into this world but who will help us find our way out? "Death Wife" draws on Tremarco's experience of trying to do just that for her mother.It's a journey down the River Styx with a philosopher, a fool and a heartbroken little girl. Sean Kempton- Stuff. "Stuff" is a love story but not the one you've seen a million times before, this is another kind of love story, maybe everybody's love story. Using clown, mime, dance and the audience "Stuff" is playful, fun, sad and familiar. Conflux presents a new piece of work devised and performed by emerging artists based in Scotland.
