Details

An exhilarating trio of contemporary works to challenge, inspire and mesmerise. With a haunting score by Philip Glass, A Song in the Dark is a lyrical, fluid piece inspired by themes of love and missed opportunity. Energetic and highly emotive, Plan to A is an abstract work for seven dancers influenced by some of the world's most respected and groundbreaking choreographers, including William Forsythe, Jiri Kylián and Matz Ek. The grand finale, Banderillero, set to the music of Chinese virtuoso percussionist Yim Hok-Man, builds to a highly charged crescendo as the dancers become seduced by the power of rhythm. Running time: 75mins plus intervals. Age guidance 12+
