Performers, Kimberley Harvey and Anne-Gaëlle Thiriot are dressed in vintage late 1980's/early 1990's shell suits in shades of turquoise, white and fuchsia. Positioned side-on to the camera, hands on hips, looking over their shoulder towards the horizon.
Team with No Name is an intimate journey unfolding a 15-year friendship, in which two people are connected by the desire of a profound mutual understanding.
A pair of misguided romantics and long time friends invite you into their quietly furious, relentlessly optimistic evolution of friendship.
Contemporary dance geeks, Kimberley and Anne-Gaëlle have been friends for 15 years (& counting!). Masters in their own gymnastics and medalists in working across time and distance, this duet explores a rich connection between two award-winning dreamers and specialists of the in-between, who relish in the unspectacular.
