RESOLUTION: Indigo Movement Company, Izzy Doick, and Jacob Lang & Lara Fournier

Resolution 2027

1: Three women embrace each other, they are all smiling whilst dancing together. 2: Two dancers, one female and one non-binary, look towards each other on either end of the image in hope and determination. Bark and moss textures of a tree camouflage their faces and across the image. In the centre a bright, blue light illuminates the image with dancers running across the centre space. 3: Two dancers embrace closely against a dark background, with one dancer’s arm reaching upward while the other holds them around the waist. Their restrained expressions and intertwined bodies create a sense of intimacy and emotional tension.

As We Grow by Indigo Movement Company

As We Grow is a heartwarming, dance and puppetry piece created by Lauren Williams and performed by Indigo Movement Company.

Inspired by the concept of Birth Order Theory, the audience is invited to consider, how do our relationships with our siblings (or lack of) influence the people we grow into as adults? This piece explores the potential complexities of an eldest child and how their personality could be shaped through family dynamics and expectations.

Timeplay by Izzy Doick

In Timeplay a capitalist dystopia is revealed. We meet the matriarchy, formed of eight dancers, fighting for the earth, community and presence. Amidst turmoil, they navigate questions of identity, connection and balance in an oppressive world.

The work explores our longing to return to the past whilst racing towards a better future. Timeplay asks: how do we find peace, and what happens when we finally get there?

About Izzy Doick

Izzy Doick is a dance artist based between London and Brighton, working in performance, choreography and facilitation. Izzy’s work explores somatic, embodied, honest movement, applying tools within dance and acting. Their movement style is embedded from their diverse training and lived experience. They are curious about analysing and researching human patterns and behaviours; dissecting social behaviours through the medium of dance, aiming to explore what it means to disrupt oppressive structures and where we find ourselves in unknown territory. Izzy’s work has been shown at Drama Studio London and the Lilian Baylis Theatre at Sadler’s Wells.

Bedtime Stories: From Our Bed We Seek Embrace by Jacob Lang and Lara Fournier

There is a bedroom. There is a bed. There is you. There is me. There is us.

Bedtime Stories is an intimate contact-based contemporary dance duet that peers into the time for connection, sensuality, and tenderness, often held behind closed doors. It is a wordless conversation. A slow dance of moving feelings. It is a reminder of how intimacy has its own physical presence that can permeate a space.
