The Morrich

The Morrich is a live contemporary performance that reflects on the experience of living in a remote and rural Highland community in close proximity to an MOD site. Through dance and live experimental sound, The Morrich offers audiences space to bring their own thoughts, memories and feelings to meet the work, as well as touching on universal themes prevalent in the world today: war, climate change, the impact of human presence in the ‘natural’ environment.

Performed by dance artist Penny Chivas and composer Nicolette Macleod, with choreography by Julia McGhee, The Morrich is a duet between dancer and sound artist, featuring an immersive sound design with the power to transport audiences on their own personal journey. The movement and sound play between what is visible on the surface and what lies beneath.
