Description Theatre maker Jonathon Young and five-star choreographer Crystal Pite have united forces with astounding effect in this Olivier Award-winning dance work. A work of staggering pain and beauty, this cutting-edge dance-theatre hybrid lays bare on stage the emotional state of shock and bewilderment that takes hold of you in the wake of a disaster. These two artists at the top of their game transform an almost unbearable personal tragedy into “a stunning testament to what can happen when life turns into art” (The Globe and Mail, Canada). This piece has taken international stages by storm. See why, in this, its final world tour performance. Make it a must-see. You won’t regret it – or forget it.
