Propos
« Cat-Gut Jim is a performance of ancestral drag in which folk songs, paintings and gestures from Scott’s ancestry are physically dug and unravelled into a dance of inheritance and inhabitance. Looking with or at the figure of Scott’s 5th great grand father Edward Corvan (1827-1865), a British-Tyneside street performer, comedian and political satirist, Scott uses the literal act of looking back to invoke a buried physicality that emerges out of spiral and spirit. With a focus on the lore of the body, Cat-Gut Jim considers the body as a site of migration, where habits, presences and rhythms dwell, stir and erupt. »
As part of the Dansorama festival organized by La Place de la Danse CDNC Toulouse Occitanie
