Info
"One of the few contemporary dance makers who has created an instantly recognisable style... fresh and unpredictable... infused with emotional texture and wit... jarring and just right."
THE NEW YORK TIMES
Stephen Petronio’s explosive new work explores the awesome forces of nature. With unpredictable twists and turns, the 11 dancers whirl like the turbulent forces of a storm.
An extraordinary live score created and performed by New York composer and IT boy, Nico Muhly, fuses stunning classical phrases with electronic landscapes, acoustic instruments and a live young people’s choir. Featuring a special appearance by Stephen Petronio, this visual spectacle brings fashion, music and dance together in an exhilarating way.
