Madam Silk to grace Glór stage

A NUMBER of contemporary art forms come together to form a unique performance at Glór next week.
Madam Silk is a co-production between Fidget Feet Aerial Dance Company (IRL) and Cie Drapés Aériens (France). The show has been created to include several art forms including aerial dance, contemporary circus dance, music and video. Three female aerial dancers, who evolve in a universe of veils and drapes, create a sensual atmosphere that gives birth to beautiful choreography while performed to eclectic music and film projections.
The three female aerial dancers performing are Chantal McCormick from Fidget Feet, Lindsey Butcher from Gravity and Levity (Brighton) and Jennifer Paterson from All or Nothing (Scotland). The renowned international aerialist, Fred Deb’, (Drapés Aériens) is the choreographer. Creating a world where the stage is filled with fabric, the women explore different ways of dancing in and suspending from it. Madam Silk has a beautiful French style with he music composed and mixed live by Jym Daly.
Madam Silk promises an evening of dance, physical theatre and contemporary circus skills as well the heart-stopping moments of aerial acrobatics that are the hallmark of the acclaimed Fidget Feet. Video projections and a music score mixed live on stage add an extra dimension to this imaginative and colourful show.
The show will be staged in Glór on Thursday, May 6.
Fidget Feet will also host their ever popular aerial workshop for adults and children on Wednesday, May 5. Tickets from Glór box office on 065 6843103 or from www.glor.ie.
