4Quartets

4Quartets

4Quartets, a dance, music and visual art collaboration inspired by TS Eliot's poems of the same name, takes the audience on a visually stunning and sensory exploration of the nature of time - both past and present.

Presented as four works by four choreographers, 4Quartets incorporates the work of visual artist Sharon Kelly and is united by a new commission from renowned composer Neil Martin.

4Quartets premiered at the Old Museum Arts Centre, Belfast in April 2009 before touring to Lisburn’s Island Arts Centre, The Market Place, Armagh and Strule Arts Centre, Omagh.

Audience Comments

“The visual force of both backdrops connected the dance with the poetry even more tightly. The pioneering instigation by Maiden Voyage is a very welcome move. I wish it would happen more often.” Slavka Sverakova, Circa Art Magazine 2009
