Swept
Swept is a series of manic, off-the-cuff duets that flow easily from one to the next and generate an instantly open rapport with an audience
SWEPT is a site specific duet which fuses dance, text, music, light and sound. In this physical journey of fun and friendship, SWEPT takes place in the intimate Peacock Theatre foyer bar. Animating these areas offers a new set of rules and possibilities spring boarding the action into a universe where anything is possible. The two performers share a friendly banter and sweep the audience along with them.
Deceptively simple, it’s a boy-meets-girl love story, infused with a playful and knowing regard for the everyday
There is a playfulness and joyousness in the performance that transmits itself directly to the audience
Their final pas de deux, which illustrates the beauty of an interdependent relationship…puts a lovely cap on a fun and smart show
