Join us for RE:VOICE at Tate St Ives – the world premiere of a new co-created participatory theatre show by island artist Agnieszka Blonska, with imPOSSIBLE Producing, Choir leader Victoria Abbott and the Tuesday Night Fun Club.
Stop.
When do you stop?
Together.
In a place where you are.
Just being.
Remembering it’s been here for a long time.
There were people here.
Who created it.
They are your ancestors.
We exist now
in the space they built.
So from time to time.
Stop.
And be,
Together.
In a place where you are.
The performance forms part of a major European project led by Falmouth University exploring cultural traditions in Cornwall and other regions in Europe which asked how living heritage can be made vital and resilient.
