Week 8 - In The Dust


Hey guys, this week it's me, Johnny, who is writing a little something about 2Faced Dance's In The Dust autumn tour 2011.
Week 8 marked the last but not least week of this tour but do not fret, this amazing production is far from finished as the company is taking its work to Sofia, Bulgaria at the end of the month and to another UK and international tour in spring 2012. So if you missed us at the Edinburgh Fringe festival or on the road in the last few months, or if you wanna catch us again and watch this powerful triple bill there will be plenty of opportunities for you to do so.
The last week was for me personally very exciting.
We performed in Ludlow, not far from our home (Hereford) and despite the fact that Herefordshire is quite rural, we've had loads of support and great audiences.
We were at the Robin Howard theatre (The Place) in London on the 31st Oct and 1st of Nov, the company was a bit tense as we were performing at a London venue, but we pulled it off together and the show was fantastic. Great reviews and amazing feedback from the audience. The 2nd night at The Place was even better and the show was filmed so I can't wait to watch the footage. All in all the London dates were slightly stressful but so much fun and very emotional especially having friends, family, colleagues and other dance buddies coming to see us!!!
Our last tour date was in the beautiful theatre of Wellinborough at The Castle, I remembered being there and performing Still Breathing ( the company's last full length production) and like so many other venues on this tour it's always really nice to go back to them and perform a new work, show our audiences what 2faced is about. It really is a nice feeling.
Tired and slightly thoughtful, we said goodbye to each other, but I am sure that these past 6 months working on In The Dust will stay with us for a long time.  
So I guess it's a goodbye for now and I might see some of you on the next tour!

Johnny
