  • Tickets: €50/ €30 (Dance Ireland Members)

Move To Question is a unique opportunity to take part in a workshop taught by movement and theatre artists Ain Gordon and David Gordon. Move to Question examines the creative process: choices we make, don’t make, don’t realise we’re making.
This workshop explores conscious and unconscious habits and other creative viruses, as well as perception versus taste when examining our own work or the work of others. Equal emphasis will be given to aggressively moderated discussion.

Participants are asked to arrive with and/or to create new material in class: to be shown, taught and repeated while altering conditions and/or context. It is recommended that attendees see Forsythe Company, Three Atmospheric Studies while taking part in this workshop.
