The Morrich

The Morrich is a live contemporary performance that reflects on the experience of living in a remote and rural Highland community in close proximity to the Morrich More, which is both a Site of Special Scientific Interest and one of the largest MOD live fire ranges in the UK. 

Through dance and live experimental sound, The Morrich offers audiences space to bring their own thoughts, memories and feelings to meet the work, as well as touching on universal themes prevalent in the world today: war, climate change, the impact of human presence in the ‘natural’ environment. 
The Morrich is performed by dance artist Penny Chivas and composer Nicolette Macleod, with lighting design by Thom Hall, and choreography by Julia McGhee. It is a duet between dancer and sound artist, featuring an immersive sound design with the power to transport audiences on their own personal journey of reflection.  The movement and sound play between what is visible on the surface and what lies beneath.

The Morrich is supported by the National Lottery through Creative Scotland, The Work Room, Macrobert Arts Centre, Clifftop Arts, Cromarty Arts Trust, and Glenkens Community & Arts Trust.

Tickets for the performance are Pay-What-You-Can - please make a donation when you arrive at the venue to support live events in Cromarty.
