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
Council of England, Sheffield City Arts and Yorkshire Arts.
Co-commissioned by Sheffield Theatres, Hall for Cornwall / Dance Agency Cornwall and
Arnolfini Live. Charlotte Vincent is a Yorkshire Dance Partner.
