Project in residence:

Between play and control, harmony and chaos. Between these extremes is the new choreography by Guy Nader and Maria Campos “Natural Order of things”, who bring the complexity of nature, viewed as the union of many diverse organisms, to the language of movement. Just as particles move around with extreme precision yet randomly and unpredictably, this show is the physical outcome of a quest embodied by the group of nine dancers audiences will see on-stage. They are constantly reorganising and reinventing themselves, always seeking balance and the utmost perfection. Might this be a display of resilience in the face of this chaos that is the ultimate fate of all physical systems? Material elements and sound give shape to the collective organism which dances on-stage to the sound of music composed by Coti K., which uses repetitive rhythmic patterns to convey a sense of controlled chaos. It is a kind of ode to life and its fragile environs.
