Illegal Dance explores a future where artistic expression is forbidden by oppressive regimes around the world. Dynamic contemporary choreography combines with innovative technical stagecraft to portray the tensions in a society that pits order against chaos, security against freedom, and individualism against collective will.
Director and choreographer Tony Adigun uses a thrilling blend of movement, music and design to pull at tangled narrative threads, explore complex character relationships, and expose fragile morality.
“(Tony Adigun) has a knack for making a small ensemble seem three times the size, flooding the stage with movement.”
-Financial Times on Fagin’s Twist
