Hofesh Shechter’s Untitled
Directed, Choreographed and Composed by Hofesh Shechter
Performed by Rachel Fallon in the role of ‘Elisabetta’
Produced by Hofesh Shechter Company
Hofesh Shechter’s Untitled is re-imagined for the digital audiences of 2020.
Filmed on location at The Lanterns Studio Theatre, London, Shechter’s Untitled offers a rare opportunity to see an exquisitely delicate and intimate short solo study from an artist who is renowned for his raw, visceral and energetic studies in award-winning ensemble work.
Originally streamed live via zoom on Thursday 24 and Friday 25 September 2020, audiences are taken through the lens of choreographer and director Hofesh Shechter, onto the stage and into the world of performer ‘Elisabetta’ as she’s steered through narratives of life, in this fragile, powerful and inquisitive piece.
This 10-minute short takes you beyond theatrical boundaries and blurs the line of audience and performer, bringing a fresh new perspective to the work.
Director: Hofesh Shechter

Reviews
‘Gripping. Quite, quite gripping.’ - David Mead, Seeing Dance
★★★★★ ‘Cleverly and mournfully Shechter has created an experience that involves us in such a way that we become only more acutely aware of what we are missing. A devastating examination on physical and cultural death.’ - Richard Maguire, The Reviews Hub
★★★★ ‘Untitled is a piece of art which wouldn’t feel out of place in the Tate Modern. It combines dance and digital sculpture in a way that harnesses current events to explore timeless themes of life. We are alone, yet we are together.’ - Sophia Moss, The Upcoming
