NORWAY RESIDENCY 2024
We're headed north!
Sara Porter Productions is invited for a three week residency to DAVVI Centre for Performing Arts in Hammerfest, Northern Norway November / December. We'll be working in the northern-most town in the world during its Polar Night developing poetry, monologue, song, and movement for the company's new work in development "Hello Sunshine!", Sara's memoir based account of her experience living with extreme sun allergy. (formerly 17 second of light)
At 70 degrees - well above the Arctic Circle - we'll be deep in darkness with no view of the sun for three weeks. The work is about how we try to understand incomprehensible things, live with grief, and decide which stories we tell, and which ones never see the light of day. Always with humour and lightness, Sara is building a new solo show about living in the dark.

It's a dance piece. It's a support group. It's a worldview.
