Details
2 Hard to Breathe takes a hard hitting journey through the eyes of a male-centric urban world and explores the sometimes difficult male relationships of father/son, brothers and peer friendships that seek to shape a man's character and the internal battle that takes place as a result of this as they strive to be true to themselves. Using a mixture of Street, Hip Hop and Contemporary Dance, this multi-media show performed by an all male dance company incorporates dance theatre, lyrics, music and film to explore the issues and pressures of being a man in today’s society.
Unfold is a work for five men that takes a humorous, long look at the subtext of communication based on living in urban society and challenges the audiences to speak their minds. The piece takes a close up look at every day situations and behaviors. At first the characters hold back their true emotions, interacting politely but superficially. Eventually they break through these imposed barriers and their true selves unfold. A new urban language emerges through the dance.
