Hofesh Shechter Company Barbarians 10-11 March 2017

Programme

At last, the acclaimed company Hofesh Shechter comes to Stockholm. To pumping bass and disco smoke they present the trilogy Barbarians on our big stage. The acclaimed The barbarians in love kicks off the evening. In a controlled and drilled manner, six white-clad figures move to the tones of eclectic baroque music. Like a bunch of 19th-century aristocrats, relocated to a sweaty club in Brixton. ”We Are Not Alone” they roar in desperation - as if to convince themselves.

This is followed by two completely different works. Firstly tHE bAD - a fleeting explosion of golden full-body socks and dubstep rhythms. Both joyful and trance-like at the same time. And finally, an intense love duet in lederhosen and Tyrolean hats: Two completely different angles of the same fucking thing. A vibrant evening with one of the UK's most headstrong, unpredictable and hyped choreographers.
