Details
Phoenix Dance Company are one of the leading exponents of contemporary dance. Phoenix Dance Theatre presents an exhilarating mixed programme, featuring a double bill by Christopher Bruce CBE, one of the most influential figures in world dance. Including a brand new work created by him especially for Phoenix Dance Theatre and a restaging of Christopher's classic study of life in the 1940's, Shift. Having choreographed works for leading dance companies across the globe, this is the first time that Phoenix will perform any of this renowned choreographer's work. The work also features two world premieres. Phoenix Artistic Director Sharon Watson follows up her audience favourites Melt (2011) and Repetition of Change (2013) with a new piece that builds on her exploration of science through dance using her simultaneously mesmerising and athletic choreography style. The fourth piece in the quartet is by exciting new choreographer and New Adventures Choreographer Award winner Caroline Finn whose work often presents darkly comic expressions of life and humanity using her playful, quirky and highly engaging choreographic style.
