Rachel Pollard, First Class University of Exeter Drama graduate, specialised in creative
psychophysical performance and new media arts. After undergoing intense
training for over three years under the tuition of Phillip B Zarrilli in the
South Indian martial art form of Kalarippayattu she pursued her training at
Circomedia, specialising in Acrobatics and Physical Theatre. She left the
school with a desire to create original and exciting performance that would
allow her whole body to speak as she remains silent. |

Sebastien Valade, former Mechanical Engineer (Master Degree) experienced in structural engineering, computer and new media technologies, came to the UK from his homeland of France to study at Circomedia following his passion for creative
juggling and physical performance. He left with the will to combine his
engineering and performance skills to create original and inventive
performance.
Alongside Green Eyed Zero, Sebastien also works as a professional juggler, www.sebastienvalade.com. |
Rachel and Sebastien met in 2005 at Circomedia (School of Contemporary
Circus and Physical Theatre) and their mutual interests in innovative
performance led them to create a short duo piece for the Circomedia
graduation show, designing a new and exciting structure.
Since then, they have formed Green Eyed Zero. Through this new performance
company they want to integrate contemporary circus, physical theatre, and
new media arts to provide an imaginative and visual spectacle for their
audience that will both challenge and stimulate through the use of
unconventional theatrical methods. |
