Corpus

As the party draws to a close, tender narratives are revealed within the complicated relationships. The playful energy of the fast and raw movement drives towards a haunting conclusion.

Photograph of Dan and Chris crawling flat-bellied across the floor in the centre of a circle of bright white light, heads tilted up, looking to the side.

Corpus highlights the differences and similarities of people set in a surreal 'after-party' world. It brings us closer to the individual through intimate physical relationships, raw movements and quirky humour.

Very exciting and fast moving 'pure movement' piece with Van Huffel's trademark 'quirkiness', as the four dancers ove about the stage in 'integrated unison' with striking duets. Breathtaking and accessible.

Dancers: Lucy, Laura, Chris and Dan
Music composed by: Jules Maxwell
(Predominantly piano, inspired by the Bach tracks Filip used in rehearsals)
