The Brides [24th - 26th September]
‘The Brides’ is a visually ravishing, provocative and hilarious evocation of ‘the feminine principle’.
The Brides are reborn in Limbo, watched over by the Bride of Lost Children. They embark on both an individual and collective journey, evolving through a series of female archetypes as they search for identity and meaning. They dance, speak, fight and hope in a cycle of monsoon and heat. The performance is rooted in the visceral exploration of emotion and imagination. It emerges from an intensive research and creative process, communicating the strength, desperation and beauty of ‘femininity’.
‘The Brides’ was originally a co-production of David Glass Ensemble and Collettivo Teatro Siena in 2017/18 in Italy. It has also been workshopped twice in China. This new iteration is a collaboration between Singapore’s Method Productions and TheatreLab and the original creators. Future versions are currently being developed in London and beyond.
