CandoCo Dance Company – Last Shelter & Set and Reset/Reset

CandoCo has gained a reputation as the world’s leading company of disabled and non-disabled dancers.

Candoco Dance Company returns to the stage with a double bill from two boundary-breaking New York based choreographers. The evening begins with Set and Reset/Reset, a recreation of Trisha Brown Dance Company’s seminal Set and Reset. The dancers move with dream-like fluidity within a kaleidoscopic form to a driving Laurie Anderson score in their unique version of Trisha Brown’s choreography. In contrast, Jeanine Durning’s Last Shelter unfolds uniquely at each performance. Teetering at the edge of what could be in an ever-shifting environment, this choreography highlights the velocity and precision of each dancer’s decision-making from moment to moment. After a year of working invisibly through a pandemic, audiences witness the labour and desire of the dancer attending to themselves and one another.
