Pro Class with Tess Letham

Tess’s classes are inspired by David Zambrano’s Flying Low & Passing Through methods. Class begins with playful group tasks that interconnect us to the space and to each other, travelling and spiralling in pathways through the room. We will then focus on specific movement sequences that explore gathering and sending the whole body, moving into and out of the floor with ease, efficiency and the joy of dancing together.

Venue: Dance Base

Dates: 30 Jul - 04 Aug

Time:10:00 (90 mins)

Tickets: £5

Tess is an award winning performer and prominent dance-theatre maker based in Edinburgh. Her work spans theatre, film, outdoor and large-scale spectacle and has included performance projects by Shotput, Simon Fildes/Cagoule, David Zambrano, PanicLab, and Mairead McClean/The Wapping Project, as well as her own productions.

Her creations combine passions for multi-disciplinary theatre, dynamic physicality and high quality integrated design and has included her inaugural show, "How to Survive the Future", and mid-scale work, "Remedy for Memory", both programmed for Dance Base Fringe Festival, 2018 & 2022. Her latest projects are being developed under the handle Fair Play, which include "Where We Used to Wander" commissioned for Hidden Door 2023, and currently in development, "What ever happened to Harmony Banks?"
Improvisation is at the core of her performance practice, and in 2021, she was awarded the #LoveDanceScotland bursary for her project "Six for Six", supported by Dance Base and Tramway.

She is a highly accomplished teacher, working for organisations such as Scottish Dance Theatre, The Place, Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Northern School of Contemporary Dance and Dance Base. Her teaching methodologies have been significantly influenced by her extensive training with internationally renowned teacher David Zambrano, including Flying Low, Passing Through, Improvisation for Performance and more recently Couple Dancing, sharing this work across the UK and beyond. Through these methods she has been drawn to philosophical ideas within the context of movement practices and group learning, which extend to our relationships with others, our environment, our roles within society and our communities. Learning that reaches far beyond the dance studio.

Alongside this her curatorial work and leadership has been instrumental to the development of award winning Hidden Door festival, working over the last three years to create a prominent platform for dance and showcasing the talent of emerging performance makers in Scotland at this multi-art form festival.

Olivier Award-winning playwright Stef Smith joins forces with Vicky Featherstone, former Artistic Director of the National Theatre of Scotland, to reimagine Amy Liptrot’s bestselling memoir. Edinburgh’s producing theatre The Lyceum returns to the International Festival to present this world premiere. A young woman finds herself washed up back home on the Scottish archipelago of Orkney. She has no idea how or if she can rebuild her life after a decade of addiction.

Flashing back and forth between Orkney and London, we get a glimpse into her former urban existence and its intoxicating temptations that pushed her to the point of destruction. She must find a way to navigate the alluring wildlife and wildness of both environments.

Smith's urgent retelling speaks to the impact of isolation and loneliness and – ultimately – the resilience of people.

Join us in the studio a fringe edition of Out of Class- an open space for improvisation with a focus on the interplay between dance and live music, presented in partnership with Curious Seed!

Facilitated by Christine Devaney (Artistic Director of Curious Seed) this session is for dance artists with experience in any discipline, who are interested in exploring improvisation. The session will build from simple guided scores, providing a space for us to tune into ourselves and others, and then with the dance that emerges through this awareness.

Visual Artists and Writers are also welcome to participate and explore their own discipline in relation to the dance and the music.

This session is extended in length and for the last hour, 16:00-17:00 we warmly invite spectators into the space to witness the session. Spectator entry must be pre-booked ( Free).

Presented in partnership with Curious Seed.

King Bantu and Stories from the South by Rudy Mbunzama and Laura Mathana & Chinyanta Kabaso

Two unique works by Scotland-based performers exploring African history, culture and artistry.
