Tom Dale Company: SURGE and SUB:VERSION

Wed 15 May 2024

Synopsis

Tom Dale Company presents a double-bill: SURGE and SUB:VERSION

“A mesmerising union of sound and movement” ★★★★ THE GUARDIAN

SURGE is a duet between dancer and animated light in a gripping kinesthetic relationship. A future human on the bridge between the digital and organic worlds pushed to their ‘limits to feel’ – ‘to sense’ – to ‘exist’ An immersive, audio-visual, genre-breaking performance with live vocals and a specially commissioned soundtrack from the acclaimed British music producer ITAL TEK.

“Relentlessly stimulating, Surge is terrifying and stunning, prompting questions about human survival in the emergent world of AI.” – Dance Arts Journal

See SURGE as an adapted short film on the BBC as part of Dance Passion

More grounded and earthy in comparison, SUB:VERSION oozes effervescent physicality and musicality, weaving a hypnotic journey through an array of electronic music sub-genres. Laced with elements of Hip-Hop, Popping, and House Dance, this is urban yet sophisticated choreography with a distinctive style.

Show Warnings: Some flashing lights similar to strobe in SURGE.
Running Time: 90 minutes (including 20 minute interval)
