Laura Careless: She-Wolves (artistic wintering and rewilding)

Hogfish Resonance host Hillary Webb interviews Brighton based dance artist Laura Careless about the creation and performance during Hogfish's 2023 season of her one-woman show She-Wolves. https://www.shewolvesproject.com/

The She-Wolves Project raises awareness of the women who ruled England before Elizabeth through physical theatre performance and arts-based education. The book and BBC series by historian Helen Castor has been adapted into a one-woman physical theatre show by performer Laura Careless. In an exhilarating blend of dance, theatre, song, illustrated projections and original sound design, it tells the stories of five extraordinary royal women and follows the path they paved to the golden age of Gloriana. 

Hillary and Laura discuss ideas including the fruits of allowing for artistic wintering, the energetic rewards of re-wilding our techniques and selves, women's representation in the arts, and much more on their search to discover what is the regenerative arts.
