Tavaziva Dance’s new production, features four short works in different moods, from guest choreographer Harriet Macauley’s austerely beautiful
Silent Steps to the gently uplifting
Kenyan Athlete, and two startling new works by Bawren. Sinful Intimacies is a sensual duet exploring African unease with same-sex love, while a major new work
My Friend Robert draws on Bawren’s personal experiences to ask how an inspirational African leader, adored by his people, can descend into horror: corruption, violence, disease and economic meltdown? Suitable for age 12+
