CloseMichael Clark Company’s latest work evolves from Michael Clark’s admiration for the music of rock’s holy trinity, David Bowie, Iggy Pop and Lou Reed, who worked in close proximity during the 1970s. The production includes Bowie’s iconic song “Heroes”.
“Rock is my rock. It has been vital to me at a personal level; it has shaped me as an individual as well as an artist.” Michael Clark
Michael Clark creates work that combines his classical fluency with a twisted contemporary sensibility that embraces embarrassment, doubt and fear, as well as grace, virtue and control.
He is renowned to his legendary collaborations with bands, fashion designers and visual artists including Wire, BodyMap, Leigh Bowery and Sarah Lucas.
“… an outrageously gorgeous piece of modern dance.” The Observer
“… beautifully and inspiringly danced… unmissable.” The Daily Telegraph
“The precision of these dances seems to reach right off the stage.” The Independent

Saw this at the Barbican and can't wait to see it again. Wow, what a show. The dancing's absolutely gorgeous, the soundtrack's fab. No dance fan should miss this, it's pure class - and it's coming to Warwick. Result!
