ARTISTIC POLICY
Tilted Productions produces visually striking, accessible, yet risky and thought-provoking dance theatre by artistic director Maresa von Stockert. Marrying captivating theatricality and highly imaginative choreography, Tilted’s work is known for its dark humour and its distinctive atmosphere, at once sensuous and disturbing. Set and props, original music and text are seamlessly integrated into the choreography. Social and political commentary lies at the heart of Tilted’s work, which delves deep into the intricacies of our lives.

REVIEW EXTRACTS
This is work of magical intelligence with a grisly kick. Go be entranced.
Donald Hutera, Time Out (More Grim(m) Desires)
Von Stockert has a deliciously skewed way of looking at the world, changing bedtime stories into vignettes of wit and brutality.
Kelly Apter, The Scotsman (More Grim(m) Desires)
What amazes as always is the stunning visual effect of von Stockert and cast’s wit and imagination...it makes audiences think.
Mary Redman, The Stage, (Glacier)

CURRENT PRODUCTIONS
TrAPPED
Commenting on today’s CCTV-laden world and the bygone days of the former German Democratic Republic, TrAPPED evokes a tragic comic Kafkaesque world that is both poetic and dark.
75 mins, no interval, 6 cast, 3 crew

FUTURE PRODUCTIONS
More Grim(m) Desires
Awakening long forgotten, dark corners of the memory, More Grim[m] Desires reinterprets five well-known European fairytales and exposes their underbelly of deeply rooted human instincts, fears and desires.
90 mins, 15min interval, 6 cast, 3 crew

WRAP-AROUND
Tilted offers a variety of associated activities which can be adapted to a range of abilities and ages. Practical workshops are geared to encourage participants to develop their own creative voices as well as explore Tilted’s artistic practice (working with text and objects for example) and themes raised in the work. Tilted can tailor these to non-professionals and to professional dancers and actors. We also offer a session especially designed for the over-50s. Alongside the workshops dancers and artistic director are available for post-show discussions. With TrAPPED, Tilted also offers a talk focusing on the director/composer collaboration. Both are open to all.

TOURING AVAILABILITY
TrAPPED is available from May 2009
More Grim(m) Desires is available from February 2010
