Following
the huge success of Drop Dead Gorgeous, Vincent Dance Theatre's new
production brings together a cast of versatile and committed performers from
Austria, Poland and the UK. Set in a white landscape, strewn with autumn
leaves, Let The Mountains Lead You To Love investigates some of the moral and
physical urges that get us in and out of sexual trouble. Released from the
restrictions of the city, the work explores the confusions of sexuality, the
puzzles of sexual attraction and the inevitable imperfections of human
behaviour. Let
The Mountains Lead You to Love is a rich and playful look at love in its
various forms- platonic, lustful, forbidden, sensual, jealous, divine,
innocent, and romantic, and creates a pastoral ideal where the young and the
beautiful triumph, just like they always have. But with the company's
trademarks of gruelling physicality and dark emotional undercurrents, the
allure and lightness of the pastoral fantasy reveals it to be a shared but
impossible dream. Let
the Mountains Lead you to Love features Associate Director TC Howard,
violinist Patrycja Kujawska and dancers including Aurora Lubos, Janusz Orlik,
and Iris Heitzinger. Let The Mountains Lead You to Love is funded by the Arts |
