Coming out of Canada, the home of the modern circus, The 7 Fingers are one of the world's most exciting and inventive contemporary circus companies. Combining choreography and dance with physical theatre, multi-media and music this award-winning trail-blazing company thrills with creativity and deserves to be experienced live. UK Premiere. Contemporary circus trailblazers The 7 Fingers (Les 7 doigts de la main) presents this triple bill of dance and circus, a collaboration with some of the world's most cutting-edge contemporary choreographers - Marie Chouinard (bODY_rEMIX/gOLDBERG_vARIATIONS), Victor Quijada (RUBBERBANDance) and Marcos Morau (La Veronal). The first piece, a duet directed by Chouinard, focuses on gravity and its effects on the movement of the body. A quintet of virtuoso hand-balancers sees the artists seeking absolute control of gravity and exploring the relationship between stillness and movement. The second piece (by Quijada) is a 30-minute hand-balancing quintet, while the final piece (by Morau) places a definite emphasis on circus, as eight artists free themselves of both internal and physical obstacles.
