Julie Cunningham has established a reputation as an extraordinary contemporary dancer - arresting, poised, sophisticated and precise - during a long career in which she has performed with Merce Cunningham and Michael Clark Companies. Since making her move into choreography, with the double bill To Be Me seen at the Barbican, she has been developing work that responds directly to poems and text. Total Theatre & The Place Award for Dance 2019 nominee Ultimate Dancer uses uncanny sounds, songs and recycled dances to skew reality in mystical directions, creating new worlds. A computer can become an opera singer, can become Greta Thunberg, can become dogs biting sour trees, can become the change, can become a forever winter solstice, can become bitcoins, can become vantablack, can become romance, can go up in flames, can become a clotted blood frog, can be eaten alive and can be a complete state of mind.
