Insane in the Brain
A street dance version of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Tue 3 & Wed 4 Nov 7.30pm
Theatre: £18 (£16), £20 (£18)
Composers / major pieces: Missy Elliot, Dizzee Rascal, Gotan Project, David Holmes, Cypress Hill
Dance company / producer: Dance Touring Partnership presents Bounce
The classic story of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest is injected with a large dose of hip hop energy by Bounce. This exciting company is known for creating high energy, imaginative street-dance theatre, enjoying hit runs in the the West End.
In the confines of a psychiatric hospital, breakdance becomes a way of expressing freedom and rebelling against the iron rule of Nurse Ratched – who happens to be a ballet fan…
The show features a fantastic soundtrack including hits from stars like Missy Elliot, Dizzee Rascal, Gotan Project, David Holmes and Cypress Hill.
Inventive set design (including bungee-jumping breakdancers), film and choreography are mixed to produce a fast-paced show that is at times funny, at times moving, and always packed to the rafters with high-octane dance moves.
Based on the play by Dale Wasserman & the novel by Ken Kesey.
Contains adult themes and some violence. Parental discretion advised.
“Insane in the Brain makes Ken Kesey’s classic story seem designed for a hip-hop makeover. Hip-hop’s skewed poses, crazy angles and zombie walks lend themselves to the subject; but Bounce transform the style into real theatre” The Guardian
