About the Performance

In 1988 the memorable I am curious, Orange featuring live music by indie legends The Fall wowed audiences. His creative starting point this time is that period in the late 1970s when rock's holy trinity - David Bowie, Iggy Pop and Lou Reed - worked in close proximity producing some of the classic music of the time.

Inspirational, iconic and rebellious, Clark's dance worlds are radical and revolutionary, blending classicism with contemporary ideas. His company, formed 25 years ago, has changed the face of British dance, collaborating with bands, fashion designers and visual artists.

With Clark's choreography and his wonderful company of dancers expect an evening of exhilarating modern dance.
