Entity

“My primary aspiration has always been the communication of ideas through the medium of the body. I don’t want to do the same thing twice”, says acclaimed choreographer Wayne McGregor when asked about the philosophy he brings to bear in creating his shows. “When seeking to free the instincts”, Mc- Gregor goes on, “artists are not restricted by frontiers; rather, we need them so that we can push against them.» From the stripped, empty stage, the dancers transport us into an electrifying artistic proposal that seeks to examine, in-depth, the natural and artificial connections between the body and the brain. Entity is performed by ten characters who are stretched to the limit of their physical being, flying over the stage to the rhythm of music created by Jon Hopkins (who has worked with Coldplay and Massive Attack) and Joby Talbot (composer for The Divine Comedy and the White Stripes).
