“What does it mean for a body to fray?”

MUDPIT

a devised dance-theatre piece

presented by Movement Lab Post-Baccalaureate Fellow Celia Krefter

 

MUDPIT is the peat bog from which we emerged, into which we will return. Decomposing, regenerating, molting – what happens in the space between the fluorescent buzz of our hypermodern world and the ancient wisdom of bugs, blood, fire, and seeds?

Everything we make is part of nature, whether we like it or not.
