Yorke Dance Project will juxtapose past and present with works by choreographers who have shaped dance today. Martha Graham's iconic Lamentation is performed alongside the premiere of Robert Cohan's final work Afternoon Conversations with Dancers, created during lockdown. Cohan trained and performed with Graham, one of the seminal forces of modern dance. Kenneth MacMillan's Sea of Troubles follows and the programme is completed with the premiere of a new work by Artistic Director Yolande Yorke-Edgell, with music by Nathaniel Dett, illuminating the company's dedication to past and present contemporary dance.
