Being Human

BEING HUMAN is an emotionally charged dance duet that explores the extraordinary within everyday life.

Two dancers push and pull against each other in highly physical moments of connection and isolation. This dynamic fusion of body and soul celebrates humanity and unravels our innate need for interpersonal relationships. This ground-breaking piece features highly trained dancers and movement pioneers who share diverse and disabled lived experiences on stage.

Their movement explores identity, perception, and everyday experience through movement, visual patterning and emotional depth. This mesmerising work is the creation of sector-leading nonverbal choreographer Lisa Simpson.

BEING HUMAN gives physical form to frustration, exhaustion, and human connection – inviting audiences to see their own lives reflected through diverse and disabled perspectives.

Running time: 1 hour and 5 minute (no interval).
