What's On
Desert Crossings
State of Emergency
Thu 9th February 2012
A collaboration between UK based producers, State of Emergency and South African choreographer Gregory Maqoma of
Vuyani Dance Theatre, performed by a company of five dancers from different cultural backgrounds, with an original
score by Steve Marshall.
Inspired by the similarities between the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site on England’s south coast and the Skeleton Coast of Namibia, this new work is an exploration and reflection on two very different
places, united through a shared history of the rocks on which they stand.
Post Show Discussion.
“The choreography resonates with ancient traditions, belief systems and mythologies.”
