  • Summary: Trespass is the first half of two companion pieces, the second being Affections. David Buckland's designs are constructions that act as extensions to the dancers' bodies. Peter Mumford designed a large light-filled ball, free of wires so it could move. These structures and props are manipulated and negotiated by the dancers that 'trespass' into the stage space. The work includes a commissioned score by Gerald Barry.

  • Analysis: 'Several months ago, before starting rehearsal with the dancers, I asked the composer, costume, stage and lighting designers to contribute dynamically different elements, each of which had the potential to alter and influence the other components of the work - music, design and movement. The title of the piece comes from the idea that all of these elements would be trespassing on the others' domain' (Siobhan Davies, programme note, 1996).
