The Place Prize: celebrating the best in contemporary dance

INTERVIEW: EVA RECACHA

In the third part of our series on the Place Prize, choreographer and Place Prize finalist Eva Recacha speaks to Diana Damian about her piece The Wishing Well, inhabiting memories real and imagined, and how chemistry can inform dance. The piece is competing in this year’s Place Prize Finals, which was at The Place, Robin Howard Dance Theatre, from 6-22 September. Recorded at The Place, 22 August 2012.

I wanted to bring something from my history and culture into the piece, and found this concept of the constant need of a third party intriguing.
