DIG 2015: 5 Tangos & Exalt - a new commission by Marc Brew
World Premiere
“Dancers that demand your attention and leave you gasping for more” - The Scotsman
Scottish Ballet is delighted to be part of the first edition of Dance International Glasgow, bringing an inspiring double-bill that breaks the boundaries of ballet.
Indepen-dance 4 & Scottish Ballet - EXALT
Choreographed by Marc Brew
A collaboration with Indepen-dance 4
Exalt explores the human interaction of relationships through physical conversations.
5 Tangos
Exalt will be paired with Hans van Manen’s 5 Tangos, a sizzling work that combines classical ballet with the passion and dramatic flourishes of tango, last performed by Scottish Ballet in autumn 2012. Van Manen’s enthusiasm for sensual, powerful choreography is at its peak here, exploring the breadth of tango’s moods whilst hinting at the dance’s rich, dark history and using the explosive physicality of ballet to full effect.
