ELLIOT DODD
The most exciting electronic artist to emerge from Jersey (Channel Islands) in the last 3 years. He will be using electricity to induce trance.

KATSURA ISOBE
Katsura Isobe is an independent dance artist. Having trained in ballet and contemporary dance, her current focus is creation and performance of movement-based works in collaboration with other artists from different disciplines, which may take a form of installation in non-theatre space. Katsura's practice enquires how the body communicates with the environment and other bodies (http://www.katsuraisobe.net/).

MILDRED RAMBAUD
“Pot” a live performance, addresses the ephemeral and the classical, through dance. During the performance, the audience is guided through a process of permutation, that of water through clay. As the pot collapses a highly visceral relationship unfolds between the clay and the dancer. This gesture asserts the beauty of impermanence.
