Experience a staggering blend of grace, grit, sexuality, and multimedia technology that confirms Wayne McGregor’s place as one of contemporary dance’s most versatile and inspiring choreographers. Performed against a pounding soundscape by Coldplay and Massive Attack collaborator Jon Hopkins and award-winning composer Joby Talbot (The Divine Comedy), ENTITY is a thrilling hour-long testimony to originality that defies categorization.
