Shallal Dance Theatre performed A Call to Home again, this time at their new home base St Peter's Church Newlyn, so more people had a chance to see it.

Working with improvisation the performance weaves original dance, theatre, song, poetry and live music, in a wonderful multi-faceted response.

Thank you to Sapphire for this recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zo2FhEHbtiA&t=1126s

The show is a commissioned response to themes with the Kresen Kernow's exhibition 'Out of the Ordinary' and the history of the Ordinalia.
