dance/physical theatre review

Glow

Chunky Move

A new genre, really, that we will undoubtedly see more of - a female form contorts across a background of lights that follow the rhythms of her shape. The manifestation of this art form which connects movement with light and sound felt like a sci-fi re-birthing experience, which evolved into a horror story where shadows engulfed the human form. Visually it reminded me of a something like a Daft Punk music video, with a musical soundtrack that sounded like industrial techno. There are so many places you can take this dance /sound / light installation, it's ground-breaking stuff and a worthy addition to the Festival.
