Motionhouse Presents: KNOT
Motionhouse Presents: KNOT
Exploring the many facets of human relationships through physical expression
Knot sees two male dancers using extreme physicality, complex lifts and contact choreography to explore the many facets of human relationships through physical expression. Twisting and turning, the balance shifts from one dancer to the other as they use their physicality to express their emotions. Inspired by Salvador Dali’s ‘Metamorphosis of Narcissus’, Knot asks questions about who we are; delving into our inner lives and our relationships with others.

Motionhouse Presents: LOST
Motionhouse Presents: LOST
Exploring the limits of being physically and emotionally lost.
Lost explores the limits of what is it to be both physically and emotionally lost. The visceral and thought-provoking choreography of this male-female duet combines Motionhouse’s characteristic contact work, complex lifts, and athletic precision with emotionally charged fluidity. Sensual connection between the two dancers is fused with raw emotion as they desperately fight to pull each other back from the precipice, just catching each other before they fall. The breath-taking lifts and instinctive quality of the dance makes Lost an intimate, dramatic and passionate work.
