A collaborative dance performance about what it means to be ‘home’ told through movement and sound. Silence Between Waves brings together a cast of three exceptional Singaporean dancers with a community cast drawn from Torbay. It is an invitation for audiences to consider what home means to them, set within the arresting landscape and seascape of Berry Head. The performance connects two places across the sea by reflecting on home and far away. 

Richard Chappell Dance will be delivering workshops with Dance in Devon, ROC Creative, Brixham Academy and The Spires School, to encourage meaningful dialogue on international collaboration, and to recruit participants to take part in two workshops on Berry Head that will culminate in performance moments of ‘Silence Between Waves’. 

The work is supported by Arts Council England and is a collaboration with Dance in Devon who will support Richard Chappell through mentoring and community engagement. It also establishes new partnerships for Richard Chappell Dance with Singapore’s National Arts Council and Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts.
