Scott Thurston has published a new book of poems with Beir Bua Press, based in Co. Tipperary. Terraces: a choreography, is a sequence of eighty prose poems which continue Scott’s long-standing exploration of embodied movement experiences through poetic language. Scott has realised several of the poems in the book as choreographic performances in which he dances and articulates the words of the poems at the same time. The book was launched on 25 March with a new dance-poetry film and short performance by Scott. There is a video of the launch online here.

For more information about the book see Beir Bua Press here.

There is a Salford press release here.

A related short dance-poetry film, also called Terraces, can be found on Pamenar magazine here.
