Company of Wolves presents a solo work by Anna Porubcansky.
'Unbecoming' is a performance about loss and rage, told by a woman and a mother. Rage, at all we become when we don’t have a choice. Loss, of all we haven’t become. And how we unbecome.
Using traditional song, soundscape, myth, and movement, 'Unbecoming' is a dreamworld: a rich and sublime space where image, memory, desire and fear all reside. Watch a woman unravel, layer upon layer stripped away; a human, unmasked.
How much of what we are is what we’ve chosen to be?
Alongside the performance, a free Breath/Body/Voice workshop for women of all ages and abilities will also be held at the Cromarty Hall on the 20th of September between 10.30am and 12.30pm.
Led by Anna Porubcansky, this workshop will draw on Anna's extensive training in movement, voice and creative practices to give participants from all backgrounds an opportunity to come back to themselves: their own bodies, their own breath, their own sound. Singing together, the groups will explore the relationship between memory, song, body, and desire, and will offer participants an experience of togetherness, collective creativity, and emotional catharsis - a necessary re-connection after the years of pandemic.
Tickets cost £10 and can be booked by phoning 01856 831 550.
