grief is the thing with feathers

Documentation of the development of Helen Calcutt's dance-theatre adaptation 'Grief Is the Thing with Feathers'. The work reimagines Max Porter’s celebrated novel through an evocative interplay of words and bodies, rendering both Porter’s world and the experience of grief as fully kinetic and alive.

Images taken during the rehearsal and development week, leading to a scratch performance.
