Oriente Plus / Power Cut | You Have Half a Second to Impress Me

Pioneers of Signdance theatre, Signdance Collective (SDC), bring their new production to Salisbury Festival followed by a debut performance from 2080s 

Oriente Plus/Power Cut 

Oriente Plus/Power Cut by Pedro De Senna, is a Caribbean story about the things that keep us together, even when the world tears us apart.

A story about poetry, music and culture, a story of power cuts and generators, of crossroads and ocean crossings, of haunted bodies and dancing souls.

Signdance Collective are a culturally diverse, D/deaf and disabled led company who originated Signdance Theatre as an art form 35 years ago. A typical Signdance work combines dance, sign, music, spoken word and film in new and creative ways. 

Written by Pedro De Senna, with additional writing by Tarik Ross Cameron and Peter Osita. Original music by Angelina Schwammerlin and David Omni.

YOU HAVE HALF A SECOND TO IMPRESS ME

Followed by YOU HAVE HALF A SECOND TO IMPRESS ME is the debut show from 2080s. The show takes place behind a large rear projection screen.

Robert Corcoran performs 2080s' music live behind this screen, in silhouette. Throughout, he interacts with images on the screen, creating a 'live music video' effect and an unforgettable experience for audiences.

YOU HAVE HALF A SECOND TO IMPRESS ME is a meditation on modern life, exploring themes of technology and identity, in colourful, fun and unexpected ways. What's more real, the version of you on the screen, digital and perfectly curated?  Or the version of you hiding behind it?
