ABOUT
BEYOND WORDS is a ground-breaking, cross arts dance company, founded by poet and choreographer Helen Calcutt.
We present text in ways never-before experienced, holding space for words to learn their physical power. Our work is story driven, rooted in a choreographic language of precise, gestural articulation, physical dynamism, and ensemble staging.
​​​​​
Through our research, we are committed to true intergration of artistic form. Dance and words have longed occurred side by side. We're interested in deeper translation - where text is 'read' through non-verbal methods of delivery and communication.
​​​​​​​​​
​Uniting contemporary dance, gesture, and voice, dancers are brought together through playful & unexpected exchanges to create compelling new modes of physical storytelling that ‘break language’.
