WOW - Women Of The World Festival 2013: Ménage à Trois

A hauntingly beautiful study of love, obsession, loneliness and manipulation, 'Ménage à Trois' is a visually stunning piece of dance theatre from award-winning performer Claire Cunningham and choreographer/video artist Gail Sneddon.

This darkly humorous and deeply personal portrait explores Claire's 20-year relationship with her crutches and asks if it's possible to find love when there are already three of you in the relationship.

'Sometimes I feel like a machine. I forget I was made to touch skin, to feel heat, breathe, to have someone's smile pressed into my neck. I wasn't made to click. But with you I click. We. Click. Like a clique, a trio, a Ménage à Trois.'

In a private chamber, a lonely woman begins to craft the perfect man out of the only thing she knows - her crutches.

There will be a post-show talk after the performance.
