A web of live copper wiring, shallow bowls of water and ceremonial herbs combine with ritual movement to create a work that conveys an experience of living with the chronic illness Fibromyalgia.

111 (17 and 18 October), is a duet between Joel Brown, known for his work with Candoco and Axis Dance, and former principal ballerina with Scottish Ballet, Eve Mutso.

-ish (Friday 19 and Saturday 20 October) is a dance performance from Glasgow-based Aby Watson with various bodies of air: helium balloons, a space hopper and a human being. Made from the perspective of a dyspraxic choreographer, the work explores the subject of identity, disability and (in) visibility.
