LOCATION: Alexander Theatre

Dust takes a deep and daring dive into how, through the lottery of birth, we inherit the architecture of restriction and opportunity. Award winning Dancenorth examines personal, social, cultural and political inheritance and the way we question and respond to that which has come before us. How can we scrutinise the past in order to shape the future? In Dust, the dancers attempt to agitate and illuminate the engineering of their own existence. Dust is an audacious new collaboration created by Dancenorth’s Artistic Director Kyle Page and Associate Artistic Director Amber Haines, featuring music by Jessica Moss (Thee Silver Mt Zion) and an architecturally-designed set by the award-winning Liminal Studio.
‘DUST IS AN EXQUISITE WORK; A POWERFUL PIECE OF CONTEMPORARY DANCE THAT FLIRTS WITH POTENTIALLY HEAVY-HANDED IMAGERY BUT NEVER SUCCUMBS TO THE OBVIOUS. COHESIVE AND FLUID, IT INTEGRATES MOVEMENT AND DESIGN BEAUTIFULLY… DUST IS A RICHLY EVOCATIVE WORK’
— RICHARD WATTS, ARTSHUB
