projectMUSE is a solo dance-theatre work, exploring ideas of the archetypal feminine 'Muse', illusions of grandeur and the abstract concept of inspiration.
Directed, choreographed and performed by Hannah Tasker-Poland, the work is a culmination of her 12+ years of experience of constantly being in some form of 'Muse' role for other artists, and how this role is acknowledged, utilized, abused or projected, and how inspiration or creation is drawn from these actions.
Where does the Muse wait?
Is 'The Muse' in fact one lone female deity who serves all artists?
What does she do when no-one needs her?
Does she have a voice? Does she consent to this 'Muse' role?
