Choreography that gets to the core of our being

Liz Roche combines film and dance to explore the mind-body connection, writes Pádraic Killeen

OVER the course of the next month, the work of distinguished Irish choreographer Liz Roche will grace both stages of the national theatre.

Roche is a collaborator on the Abbey Theatre’s upcoming new production of King Lear. Before then, however, her own show, Body & Forgetting, which debuted at last year’s Dublin Dance Festival, begins a run at the Peacock, and then embarks on a national tour.
