MISSA (meaning ‘Mass’ in Latin) is an enactment of the liturgy of the Mass in dance. This is Eliot Smith's first major dance work and premiered inside Westminster Cathedral in London.

 

Originally performed by students of The London Contemporary Dance School on 16 February 2011, Missa was revived and performed by a new cast of seven strong female dancers and performed inside Saint. Dominic’s Priory in Newcastle upon Tyne, in collaboration with The Cosmos and lighting designer Aether & Hemera on 13 October 2012.
