111 - the number of vertebrae Joel and Eve have between them...hypothetically. Eve "moves like she has a hundred", Joel's spine is fused and he jokes he only has 11. Together Joel and Eve explore movement and structure creating a entrancing piece of collaborative dance.
111 is a powerful duet between two exceptional dancers – Eve Mutso (former Principal Dancer of Scottish Ballet) and Joel Brown (Candoco Dance Company) - as they explore their different strengths and vulnerabilities. Commissioned and supported by Unlimited, celebrating the work of disabled artists, with funding from Spirit of 2012, The Work Room, Tramway, Creative Scotland, The Place and Check it Scaffold. 111

Shown as part of the Unlimited Festival at Tramway, Glasgow, 111 was a hit with audiences and critics alike. Listed in the Guardian as one of the top 12 shows at 2019’s Edinburgh Fringe, part of Made in Scotland it was a sell out success before touring to the Bounce Festival, Belfast, NI, Tblisi International Festival in Georgia, Dance Live in Aberdeen and IF, Oxford. In 2021 we launched Southbank’s Unlimited’s digital festival with a film of our original Tramway show and joined Hay FestivalArequipa, Peru for a Q&A session.
2022 was a good year for 111, presenting the work at Gathered Together Festival in Glasgow and the Liberty Festival, London before touring to India in December: Spaces for Dialogue | #TakeTheCityKolkata, Pickle Factory, Kolkata; National Centre for Performing Arts (NCPA), Mumbai; Jyoti Ltd. Vadadora; Darapana Academy, Ahmedabad and finishing at India’s largest Arts festival – Serendipity Arts Festival, Goa.
