Synopsis: | he Threat of Silence is an innovative and dynamic evocation of the languages of quietude and silence. Weaving, video, text, live performance and music this performance creates time and a place of refuge from the escalating bombardment of noise, information overload and escapist trivia satiating contemporary living. Silence in which the possible multiplies. silence in which the distribution of the sensible is remade. Quietude in which we are left thinking, aware of the space which we are left to fill. | |||||
