After All

AFTER ALL, created by Dundee-based French contemporary dance and performance artist

Solène Weinachter, is a new dance-theatre show that celebrates the intricacies of humanity’s

vulnerable and courageous existence, encouraging us to feel these essential emotions to their

fullest.

Skillfully comedic and emotionally introspective, AFTER ALL explores the death rituals we

have, the ones we’ve lost, and the ones that need inventing. Although death comes to

everyone, talking about it is often a taboo that results in people holding their grief in isolation -

something Solène aims to recast and remould through a fresh outlook on the human

experience.

Through a series of humorous, impassioned re-enactments of the funerals of those she’s loved

- as well as imagining her own - Solène attempts to conjure a better sort of space, for all of us,

to be with death, dying and loss; bringing us together to explore the role that dancing may

play in healing.

Solène melds dance, comedy, storytelling and theatre to ask: what happens in the end?
