Choreographer

We redefine the existing boundaries of dance this season. Entrusted with the freedom to explore the depths of their imagination, each of these two experimental and dynamic creators have been invited to unfurl narratives that resonate with their own sensitivities and reflect the pulse of today’s ever-evolving world. These works are sure to break the bounds of what we know and take you, our audience on an exciting escape into the unknown.

MacEwan University

Scottish Dance Theatre celebrates four decades of innovation with the world premiere of two new creations by internationally acclaimed choreographers Emilie Leriche (US/Sweden) and Edouard Hue (Switzerland).

Rotten Work & The Game of Life

Dundee Rep Theatre

With humor and irony, the choreographic duo picks up where the arts have lingered with utmost seriousness for centuries: with love – and the broken heart. Countless times these themes have been brought to the stage as existential experiences, tragedies, or dramas of longing. Now, this pathos is put to the test through dance. A workshop for broken hearts transforms stage and body into sites of metamorphosis. With subtle wit and a touch of self-irony, the piece opens up a new, fresh perspective: love is not idealized but curiously questioned; suffering is not glorified but dynamically translated into movement and rhythm. Irony is not used for distancing but becomes a means of liberation. SYNERGY INC. or How to Fix a Broken Heart creates a space where vulnerability and humor can coexist.
