About This Show
Humanity is pushing at the boundaries of evolution as we enter the augmented age. The digital world is on a quest to re-create life and does this by making ever more real copies of the world. Humans share the planet with the new life force – technology. We ask: “What is the future of the human body in a world beset by inequality… as evolution/natural selection is replaced by intelligent design?” SURGE is a stunningly visual, immersive dance performance, performed inside a digitally projected landscape to an evocative music score – a concept album live on stage from acclaimed electronic musician Ital Tek. Audiences are free to stand, sit or move around the centralised performance space to get thrillingly close to the dancer.
