on Tomorrow. The event starts at 19:30.
AFTER ALL is a show about death by Solène Weinachter.
It is a celebration of our vulnerable and courageous existence using dance, theatre, storytelling and comedy to ask: how do we deal with the end?
By exploring various funeral rites - ones we have, ones we have lost, and those yet to be invented - choreographer Solène Weinachter confronts our transition between worlds head-on. AFTER ALL is a hopeful attempt to conjure a better sort of space for us to be with loss and collectively contemplate the finite nature of our lives.
