Description

An ode to the macabre, a salute to your inner demons and a sacrifice for our audience. Join us in an exploration of femininity and the true nature of insanity through contemporary dance. Let our beauty awe you, let our movement leave you with shivers. Described as a feast for the soul, twisted yet beautiful, come and watch us surrender ourselves to the gods, whoever they might be, and truly entertain you. Let us dance with the flowers they’ll one day place on our graves. Eat dirt.

Bewitching and impeccably performed, this could be one of the festival’s best-kept secrets.

If you find yourself with a spare half an hour before lunch, I cannot think of a better way to fill it (and unlike the film, this won’t put you off your food).
