Dance 4 and NOW have invited Bomba Suicida to put together a piece of work as a response to Nottingham, to be given a world premiere at the NOW Festival 2004. After visiting Dance 4's studio for a week in August, they decided to work on four indiviual, but complementary, pieces. Informed by ideas ranging from the romantic poetry of Byron to the intersection of the dreamt and the real city through to the transcendental shopping delights of the Victoria Centre, these four works will make you look at our city in a different light.
The actual performances will be largely movement-based, together with video projection, embracing contemporary dance video footage taken in Nottingham locations, spoken narrative and sound recording. The work may have darker moments, but much is characterised by a quirky irreverent, humorous edge.
The only other way you'll get to see this NOW and Dance4 co-commission is by shipping out to Lisbon, so don't give Stelios the pleasure of your airfare, and catch it while it's here.
