CScape

As someone who spends the majority of her time behind a desk, whose most energetic activities involve walking the dog, weeding the garden or pushing the hoover round the house, I have to confess that part of my delight in C-Scape dance company’s work is pure envy! Their extraordinary energy never ceases to amaze me.

C-Scape make work that has the capacity to be delightfully amusing – for example the ladies undergoing a little retail therapy in ‘when the shops shut’, poignant - as in their unforgettable interpretation of Vera Lynne’s ‘We’ll meet again’ on Trebah Beach as part of ‘Landings’ and always visually enthralling.

Their latest show ‘The Venus Flower and other Stories’ is a feature of a week long celebration that is part of the Cultural Olympiad RELAYS programme. The week begins on July 5th at the stunning site of Trebah Gardens, a wild sub-tropical ravine that magically stretches down a valley to the waters edge of the Helford Estuary. That’s great for me, it’s just a short walk from home, so I still won’t have to exert too much energy!
