Matsena Productions/House of Absolute – Shades of Blue/Warrior Queens

About the Show

Experience first-hand the next generation of leading UK choreographers in this double bill which touches on both a social movement and cultural heritage. Shades of Blue is a work from Matsena Productions that beats to the tune of change, in which performance and protest clash and mould together. The work combines thunderous choreography, powerful text and a slick score that will not only make you rethink your position in society but celebrate a stronger future which we all have a part in building. Interrogating displacement, cultural hybridity and power, Warrior Queens delves into ancestry and lineage inspired by the legendary folk myth of ‘Hua Mulan’ and Virginia Woolf’s ‘Orlando’.
