NATIONAL DANCE COMPANY WALES

LUNATIC

by Nigel Charnock &

NEW WORK

by Andonis Foniadakis

National Dance Company Wales, formerly Diversions, presents two new physically and emotionally exhilarating commissions.

Nigel Charnock’s first work created for the Company, Lunatic, takes its inspiration from the glamour era of the 1940s and 1950s. A characteristically highly theatrical production, Lunatic is on the surface visually rich and appealing but with a hard- hitting, insightful heart.

Greek choreographer Andonis Foniadakis also makes his Company debut with a provocative and inspiring new work that focuses on his hallmark technical virtuosity and fluidity, set to an original score from Julien Tarride.
