Episode 1: Nora Chipaumire and Oona Doherty
Zimbabwean-born, New York-based choreographer and performer Nora Chipaumire met up with Belfast-based choreographer and performer Oona Doherty to have a chat about their work, and dance in general.
Both Oona and Nora are intensely physical and dynamic performers, concerned with energy of the performative moment. Their conversation addressed issues of race, the idea of selling out and economies of performance.
