South East Dance are excited to share Ebb and Flow – a visually stunning and thought provoking film born from a chain-whispered proverb.

The work is a screen-dance collaboration between film director/ choreographer Deborah Tiso and Lauren Potter, composer Funki Porchini, sound designer Adam Laschinger and an intergenerational cast of local performers from Brighton & Hove, supported by South East Dance.

As chain whispers can morph and evolve words, so too can they represent our changing landscapes.

Ebb and Flow collaborators came together last year to distil these beautiful words into a dance piece that captures the movement of water and the emotions it can evoke.

Cath James

Artistic Director

Cath's pronouns are she/her.

Cath leads on the artistic direction of South East Dance and works closely with the Executive Director to ensure the effective management and leadership of South East Dance.

Originally from Australia, Cath’s background is in dance, having been a dancer at Rambert Dance Company and Siobhan Davies amongst others, as well as an international dance teacher, before moving into producing and management. She has curated, written about and choreographed dance during her 40 year career.

Dance is still a huge part of Cath’s life, taking regular dance and Pilates classes. She has been known to get creative in her own silent disco on her allotment, and doing the odd yoga session when she is feeling odd.

Cath works flexibly five days a week.
