Sabotage Baby
Sabotage Baby reflects Naharin's vision of the company as a meeting for artists of all disciplines. Dutch musicians Orkater Ensemble perform their own industrial score live on stage with their strange Heath Robinson musical gadgets. A gyrating, tuxedoed dancer leads us into this capricious dream world, populated by 20ft stilt-walking, aria-singing avenging angels, Chinese princesses and crinolined ladies as well as fantastically-costumed workers on their post-apocalyptic factory floor.
