Programme notes:
"Roll up, roll up, roll up! Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls... let my rag tag troupe of performers entertain you!”
This piece is inspired by the street and cabaret music of 1890s Paris. A thread is carried across line and rhythm often playing with the physicality and theatre of sound.
