Company of Wolves presents a solo work by Anna Porubcansky.
Unbecoming is a performance about loss and rage, told by a woman and a mother.
Rage, at all we become when we don’t feel like we have a choice. Loss, of all we haven’t become.
And how we unbecome.
Using traditional song, soundscape, myth, and movement, Unbecoming is a dreamworld: a rich and sublime space where image, memory, desire and fear all reside. Watch a woman unravel, layer upon layer stripped away, to reveal a human, unmasked.
How much of what we are is what we’ve chosen to be?
“genuinely powerful … a captivating portrait of a woman caught in the dissonance of contradictory desires”
-The List
“Anna Porubcansky’s… looping and overlaying of recorded layers and real-time vocalisings echoed the complex
layers of a woman caught in a swithering vortex of choices and desires” – The Herald

Join us for a fabulous Family Fun Day, where we will end the afternoon with an amazing performance from Ian Millar & Dominic Spencer ‘Jazz in the Village’

From a sell-out Edinburgh Fringe 2021 show, this duo based in Edinburgh, Ian (saxophones) and Dominic (piano) have been performing together for a number of years playing melodic improvisations on jazz standards and original compositions.
