days of discussion, performances, networking and engagement. Themed Place & Identity,
FRESH STREET#3 will delve into exploring the importance of place and outdoor work in
cultural identity, artistic expression and developing diversity.

Remnants is a moving and powerful presentation on
the theme of displacement. Using soundscape,
physical theatre and movement it tells a visually
spectacular and enthralling tale of three characters
whose lives have been disrupted and who find
themselves alone and homeless. The story interweaves
the characters’ fragile pasts with their hope for the
future in a beautifully choreographed performance.
