Floating on a Dead Sea is inspired by Catherine Young’s experience visiting Palestine with her dance company in 2017 and again in 2019.
Floating on a Dead Sea is Catherine Young’s immersive and visceral reflection on life in the West Bank prior to the 2023/24 war, interweaving dance, film, live music and text.
Prior to the performance, there will be a screening of Floating on a Dead Sea (documentary), created in collaboration with Luca Truffarelli, an intensely powerful film offering a glimpse into life under occupation in Palestine in 2019. The film was created in 2020, when lock-down threatened the development of the live performance.
