It will come later grew out of a series of residencies across Sweden, Wales, Hong Kong, Poland and Hungary, with 6 x international choreographers and 6 x makers and dramaturgs exploring and sharing their practice and processes. A sharing of cultures, borders, barriers and communication served as the basis for the work. The design and configuration of the space both contained and disrupted, enabling room for the choreography to evolve in and with the space. The slowly revolving curtain and one single journey of light, both revealed and concealed the movement, bodies and audience.

The lighting grew out of the ever changing dynamic of the residencies and rehearsal space. A change of tempo throughout the day, informed by the natural light present or absent from the room, generated a changing energy, atmosphere and selection vehicle for which material would make the “final cut”. It was most evident in the shift from low winter morning sun, to late afternoon gloom in Budapest’s SIN Arts Centre.

Replicating a permanent state of morning winter sun charges the final piece with an unrelenting positive energy, as the curtain makes its unrelenting rotations. The choreography of pressing, tension, body pressure and sweat never easing throughout the hour-long journey of the piece.
