Triple Bill
Emergence, the touring postgraduate dance company of Joss Arnott Dance and the University of Salford presents three adrenaline fuelled dance works for this year’s programme performed by a new company of extraordinary dancers.
Israeli choreographer Noa Zuk presents ‘The Ladder’, with new music by Ohad Fishof. Noa's new dance work explores a slick and stylised movement language that is expressive, extremely rhythmical and driven by gaga technique.
Miguel Altunaga’s ‘Dogma’ captures the raw physicality of the dancers brought to life on stage through their virtuosity and strength as performers featuring new music by Sabio Janiak.
Artistic Director, Joss Arnott completes the Bill with ‘SURGE’, a returning work from last year’s programme celebrating Arnott’s trademark, exhilarating movement language reimagined with this year’s company dancers.
A dramatic, fierce and totally rock ‘n’ roll extravaganza, be prepared to witness an exquisite interplay between movement and music all of which is accompanied by electrifying, percussive music by composer James.
Please note: This programme contains loud music, themes of death, the use of haze and flashing lights (no strobe)
Emergence is the postgraduate dance company of Joss Arnott Dance and the University of Salford that is embedded with an industry-led MA Dance: Performance and Professional Practices programme.
The programme not only focuses on touring and contemporary dance performance at the highest level, but also addresses the wider needs of the dance professional including modules on producing, teaching and workshop design/delivery – allowing dancers to develop their skills, knowledge and experience to expand their professional opportunities upon graduation.
