Touching Moments.

 

Touching Moments by Victoria Firth.

 

Tue 19 - Wed 27 January 2021

An opportunity to join Victoria in a series of playful videos about touching and being touched.

Having spent lockdown listening to podcasts and trying to do ’30 days of yoga’ this piece is her own online offer for contact seekers, the touch starved and the skin hungry. A literal and metaphorical response to our need for connection and intimacy during these times of social separation and vulnerability.

A Diverge project supported by Waterside Arts,

Originally developed for ‘Domestic’ by Word of Warning

About the artist

My name is Victoria and I’m a performer, theatre maker and director from Yorkshire.

I think theatre should be joyful and full of heart. I am interested in exploring empathy, embodiment and connection – mainly getting under the skin of things that lots of us feel but no-one talks about.

I make performance in lots of kinds of forms –theatre, comedy and live art. Almost always my shows are physical, playful and a bit perilous. Sometimes my performances have words. Sometimes not. Sometimes movement and images do what words might.

Theatre is a place I feel at home and I’d love to share it with you.
