Overview
Award-winning interactive video installation full of humour, candour, joy and love.
Join a family on a geographical and emotional journey across stunning Scottish landscapes as stories unfold. The striking choreography shares an intimate portrayal of family life. With space to roam, the children encounter rabbit skulls, converse with spiders, face-paint with berries and discover the fun of burying their mother in bark.
A celebration of getting out into nature, Family Portrait is an honest depiction of family – relentless and glorious chaos, intimacy and, most of all, love.
All performances are captioned and audio described. If you require audio description, there are limited headsets, reserve before booking via info@barrowlandballet.co.uk
Notes: suitable for all the family – it is a work that all ages would relate to
