Handle With Care is a new work in development centred around the concept of fragility – a temporary state of emotional delicacy where small demands feel too heavy to absorb. Through movement, enquiry and play we explore how the feeling of fragility sits in the body and how it can be moved, manipulated and supported through connected ideas, breath and stillness.
