10 Minute extract of Double Points: K performed to conference audience at Symphony Hall, Bimrmngham. Introduced by Minister of Culture, Ed Vaizey.
Birmingham based Rosie Kay Dance Company has secured one of their highest profile performances yet.
On Tuesday 5 October, choreographer Rosie Kay and Chris Linda, will dance at the Conservative Party conference, Birmingham.
They are performing the duet, Double Points: K, where the two dancers are in a stark universe, spiralling with spilt second timing around each other. The physical effort of the performers is exhilarating with the dancers never allowing their attention to drop for a second. The two dancers appear to share one mind and two bodies, perhaps a contemporary image from which comparisons will no doubt be drawn.
Nationally acclaimed, DanceXchange Associate Artist Rosie Kay has been making original dance in the region for more than 7 years. Known for her recent high profile work, 5 SOLDIERS, Kay’s work has the reputation of being a tour de force of the senses.
This year Kay will be building on the success of 5 SOLDIERS with an international tour being the focus. As part of the Cultural Olympiad she is creating a large scale work on the Severn Valley Railway which will perform in July next year.
