About this show

2024 Bobby Award-winning company Seed Dance returns to the Fringe with the UK premiere of another 'stunning' (BroadwayBaby.com) production by gifted artistic director Huang Wen-Jen. For her, dance is a form of socially acute visual thinking. Here her subjects range from contemporary division and connection to human vulnerability, adaptability and perception. Using a pair of simple yet strikingly symbolic framed platforms, Huang plays blazingly smart games with vertical, horizontal, internal and external space. The result is an explosively dynamic, emotionally provocative quintet packed with restless, urgent precision.
