We’re thrilled to announce our new Neon Dance production! Based on the ground breaking 1930 sci-fi novel by Olaf Stapledon Last and First Men concluded the beautiful career of Icelandic composer Johann Johannsson. Our contemporary dance adaptation will be set to the backdrop of Johannsson’s 16mm black and white film, with narration from Tilda Swinton and original music composed by Johannsson and Yair Elazar Glotman. Supported by Arts Council England, Sadler’s Wells, Pavilion Dance South West and Swindon Dance. If you’re in Swindon you can join our Reading Group with thoughts and ideas shared during the session feeding into the creation process. There’s also a sharing and exhibition of costumes and photography planned at Swindon Library and a preview performance at the Science Museum in London as part of their Science Fiction exhibition!
