An Evening with Russell Maliphant Friday 14th March 7.30pm
Award-winning choreographer, Russell Maliphant, returns to DanceEast with a brand-new solo. This contemporary dance piece promises to be a visual feast of movement and light, developed with Panagiotis Tomaras (visual artist) and a musical world created especially for the show by long time collaborative partner Dana Fouras (composer).
Maliphant’s performance will be followed by two artfully created short films specifically made and shown for this medium.
Following the films, there will be a conversation with Russell, where questions will be encouraged from the audience, so you can delve into his creative process and get to know him a little better.

A high-octane new show combining exhilarating acrobatics and dance, RPM explores the tragic, comic and absurd aspects of modern society, unravelling untold links between current problems and the UK’s troubled history – it asks the question: has this country ever confronted it’s colonial past?
