Forthcoming Shows
HOFESH SCHECHTER presents
deGENERATION
deGENERATION is an evening presenting three works of award winning choreographer Hofesh Shechter, one of the UK's rising talents as he creates dances of supreme physicality and an overall gripping atmosphere.
The evening opens with Cult, a powerful experience that reveals a dark, ironic view of the powers that steer our society and ourselves. Values tumble over each other, leaving the 6 dancers with the naked truth of their existence - struggling for a purpose they do not understand. Cult won the Audience vote special prize‚ at The Place Prize Finals, 2004.
The duet Fragments presents an insight into a couple's life inside the 'noise' of culture, a delicate piece both intense and refreshing.
The evening culminates with Uprising, Shechter's latest creation commissioned by the Robin Howard Foundation. Seven men are pushed to the limit in a piece inspired by hope in the shadow of despair. A highly engaging and complex piece with a powerful soundtrack that leaves audiences on the edge of their seat.
