Six works by students alongside Self-Portrait by Hung Tsai-hsi and Hofesh Shechter’s powerful In Your Rooms. The dancing was top drawer
Hofesh Shechter
Doing it his way. Gauthier Dance in Hofesh Shechter’s Contemporary Dance 2.0
It demands precision. It demands total commitment. And it got all three in full from Gauthier Dance. The beat never stops, and neither do they.
Four choreographers, four works: Gauthier Dance in Swan Lakes
An homage to the familiar ballet. But while each of the four works was inspired by the classic, each is decidedly contemporary and different.
Shechter II: Contemporary Dance 2.0
Features the intensity of Shechter’s signature ensemble work to an eclectic score that runs from his own throbbing creations to J.S Bach and Frank Sinatra
Hofesh Shechter Company: Double Murder
The Fix, brings a complete change. I found it remarkably compelling, Dancers embrace. Touch is tender. Moments hint at love, loss and shared experience
New views of a classic: Swan Lakes by Gauthier Dance
No flocks of white swans and definitely no tutus as Hofesh Shechter, Cayetano Soto and Marco Goecke look at the classic in their own unique style
A complex emotional cocktail: Hofesh Shechter’s Political Mother: The Final Cut
A superb film that captures completely the spirit of the original, albeit with a slightly quieter, more reflective feel.
