RUN

An evening of challenging, powerful and entertaining dance.

Created in conjunction with 2Faced Dance’s ground-breaking programme The BENCH, Fitzgerald has curated the company’s first full evening of female choreographic works. Producing an innovative artistic programme that explores the notions of fear in our current unsettled and ever changing global climate.

In true 2Faced Dance style the programme calls on the company’s unique movement language combining physically charged and emotionally arresting movement with athletic and graceful contemporary flare wowing audiences in UK, India, Germany and Italy since 2016

FIGHT OR FLIGHT? THERE IS ALWAYS A CHOICE. A gritty and explosive brand new triple bill from the award winning and physically adventurous 2Faced Dance Company. Featuring three new exhilarating commissions by world class choreographers Tamsin Fitzgerald, Lenka Vagnerová and newcomer Rebecca Evans, RUN explores the darker side of humanity, through an explosion of movement, theatre and design. RUN features an all-male company of dancers and three unique and beautiful works from choreographers Tamsin Fitzgerald, Rebecca Evans and Lenka Vagnerova. Each piece looks at notions of fear and our responses to fear.
