“Firstly Ella Mesma’s piece Papillon picked up similar themes to Zoe Murtagh’s piece earlier in the day, though from an entirely different angle, as she explored the notion of home and belonging in response to Theresa May’s assertion that ‘if you think you’re a citizen of the world, you’re a citizen of nowhere.’ The dance, in which Ella bound herself in a bed sheet, felt daring, defiant, rebellious, angry and intimate, and was beautifully performed.” MATT MILLER
