For Now, I am..
an intimate solo created and performed by Marc Brew
Stripped back – for the first time since his car accident in 1997 – Brew created a work that engages directly with his body as it is now. Investigating and exposing his changed form.
Exploring themes of what it is to be broken, reborn, purified, to reconcile being in the world in an entirely new way, to build a dialogue with a body transformed. Brew has confronted his most essential aspects, in this distilled form.
We are alone in the space with the human body.
Just us, and him.
And an expanse of white.
For Now, I am.. previewed at Sadler’s Wells Lilian Baylis Studio as part of ‘=dance’ in December 2014, and premiered at Tramway, Glasgow in May 2015 as part of Dance International Glasgow Festival.
Created for presentation in a variety of theatre venues, studio and gallery spaces, For Now, I am.. can tour as part of a mixed bill alongside other Marc Brew repertory or stand alone.
