Inspired by Neil Bousfield’s wordless novel of woodcut images, Shadows is a portrayal of a poor couple, working opposite shifts in the same factory, as they struggle through addiction and family crisis to find hope.

They see that every decision is a choice, but finding the strength to break the cycle is the hardest choice of all. With its visceral, acrobatic movement and compelling story of strength, desire and loss, this one-act straddles the worlds of dance and theatre. This performance will be held in the Gallery where works by Peter Bruun are simultaneously on exhibit. Each Has Their Grief features Bruun’s paintings and drawings which emerged from within the grief surrounding the death of his daughter from an overdose.
