Candoco Dance Company

Candoco Dance Company will be presenting two dance works at this year’s festival. As an exclusive preview prior to the company’s premiere of their new programme in September 2011 we will show our re-make of Trisha Brown’s Set and Reset. This up ‘beat seminal dance piece was conceived originally in 1983 on a cast of non-disabled dancers. Now Candoco adds its signature twist to this unforgettable work, danced to a contagious song by Laurie Anderson.Complementing this beautiful dance piece is one of our audience favourites: Wendy Houstoun’s Imperfect Storm. Loosely based on Shakespeare’s The Tempest audiences can expect elaborate costumes and theatrical moments filled with humour and laughter.‘an absolute joy and Candoco is on tremendous form,‘a wickedly urgent and gloriously ribald piece filled with beguiling movement and Monty Python-esque comedy’Dancing Times June 2010To find out more visit www.candoco.co.uk or follow us on twitter www.twitter.com/candoco
