A fascinating and thought-provoking performance coming to The North Wall this week. Stroke Odysseys is an ambitious piece of dance theatre performed by an ensemble of stroke survivors, supported by professional dancers, singers and musicians. The show explores intertwined journeys of recovery from stroke and asks what impact the act of storytelling through dance and song may have on the brain’s ability to heal itself.
This new production by award-winning choreographer Ben Duke and composer Orlando Gough is commissioned by Rosetta Life – a charity that changes the way we perceive the frail and disabled. The performance is supported by an education programme of talks and workshops led by experts including dancers, musicians, neurologists and stroke survivors.
