Scimm. Dance Company presents Paracosm

scimm

Paracosm is a double bill featuring choreography by Company Directors Scott Pokorny and Tim Barnes alongside new work, Altered Trajectory, by guest choreographer Sarah Boulter.

The show also features lighting design by Nick Glen and visual art by artist Jonty Knight in addition to launching a brand new soundtrack composed by music artist Tiarn Courtice.

Paracosm presents the phenomenon where a detailed imaginary world is created within one's mind. These worlds possess their own geography, history, and language to escape from reality. This show explores the concepts of escapism and fantasy creation expressed through contemporary dance, sound, lighting and visual art. At the intersection of dance and imagination, Paracosm serves you an artistic feast fit for the senses.
