Dance artist MC Laffitte shares her work-in-progress 'Infinity' with the audience, followed by a discussion, as part of Dance Base's Residency Sharings.
MC Laffitte is showing work-in-progress at Dance Base on Friday 6 November, a sharing that comes at the end of her residency week at Scotland's National Centre for Dance. The piece is called Infinity, and rather than a finished performance, it's a glimpse into the work while it's still evolving. You'll see the movement explorations and the questions she's been working through during her time in the studio, followed by a discussion with the audience.
The sharing is part of Dance Base's Residency Sharings collection, a series that opens the studio door on artists in residence. It's a look at the process rather than the product, so it's more about seeing how a piece is built than seeing it complete. The residency itself was supported through the venue's paid residency programme, which gives artists a dedicated space and time to develop new work.
If you're interested in how dance is made, this is exactly the kind of thing that usually stays behind closed doors. Instead of a polished premiere, you get the raw material and a chance to hear the thinking behind it. The discussion afterwards means you can ask about the work and hear from the artist herself, so it's as much a conversation as it is a performance.
