Phoenix Dance Theatre
Phoenix Dance Theatre has an international reputation for presenting inspiring and entertaining contemporary dance, performed by a formidable group of dancers handpicked from around the world.
This triple bill of dance works by Phoenix’s Artistic Director, Olivier Award-winning Javier De Frutos, is on the theme of Body & Eros. Paseillo is the first stage of the ritual; Los Picadores is a violent, carnal approach to Stravinsky’s Les Noces; while Nopalitos represents a series of tableaux of life after death, inspired by the Mexican celebration Day of the Dead, where lovers and rivals meet for eternity.
De Frutos’s work brings to the stage an evocative and passionate theatricality. The ten Phoenix dancers perform his sensual and emotionally charged choreography with unwavering technical prowess, exhibiting their strength and versatility. This is a rare opportunity to see the company perform this critically acclaimed programme in the UK.
Running Times 2hrs including two 20min intervals.
Suitable for ages 11+. Contains images of nudity and violence.
