Segue at the V&A
I co-devised Segue with Laura Kriefman of the Guerilla Dance Project, which we performed at the V&A. Segue is, for want of a better description, an interactive music-dance-theatre game. I co-devised it with Laura Kriefman with assistance from Mel Cook, and it was originally designed for Hide & Seek’s ‘V&A Late’ session in March 2010. For more information about Segue itself, see my composition and sound design page.
The V&A debut was brilliantly manic fun. There’s nothing quite like getting some serious musicians, dressing them up in silly hats and getting them to play fragments of music whilst surrounded by an exhibition of clothing from 1890s India. The game was a great success and went down even better than we’d hoped. Hide & Seek are also lovely to work with – I’d recommend going to anything that they run as it will, at the very least, be massive fun, and probably interesting and informative too.
