Since he burst onto the scene in 1996, Henri Oguike has become a leading force in dance. Combining technical virtuosity with the immediacy of live music, his work has won numerous awards and given a creative blood transfusion to the world of contemporary dance. By turns thundering and gentle, visceral and flirtatious, the work of this dynamic young company. Second Signal Oguike's latest work, resonates with the primal rhythms of traditional Japanese Taiko drums, while sacred music and sublime movement unite in Seen of Angels, an elegant piece set to excerpts from Handel's Messiah. Scarlatti's bright and rhythmical pieces for harpsichord form the setting for White Space while Show Flow is a stark, yet passionate duet dance by Henri Oguike and Charlotte Eatock.
