Cheshire Dance commission
September 25-29, 2008 at 7pm and 8pm
Crewe Railway Station, Platform 12
The Station/Stationary project has been commissioned through the Cheshire Year of Gardens Spaces Programme, which is also linked via the various transport gateways to Liverpool’s Capital of Culture celebration. It is was also part of the Open Weekend which celebrates the launch of the Cultural Olympiad program.
Cheshire Dance, The BodyCartography Project, and up to 100 performers encouraged audiences and commuters alike to reengage their sensory curiosity to redefine one of the UK’s iconic railway stations, through performance and installation works. Station/Stationary is probably the most ambitious performing arts project ever to be undertaken at a railway station in the UK.
