Siobhan Davies has produced something unique in the sphere of contemporary dance. Inspired by the simplicity of Italian folk songs, which form part of the music score, In Plain Clothes is constructed using fragments of dance; individual notes represent movements, giving the final work unlimited connections.
In Plain Clothes continues Siobhan Davies' collaborative philosophy, by inviting an architect, a linguist, landscape designer and heart surgeon, to be part of the rehearsal process, alongside her composer and designer. Each of her contemporaries, seeing movement from a different perspective, has influenced the genesis and growth of the piece, by bringing observation, energy and humour to the rehearsal process.
