Rise

Tom Dale Company

“a compelling spectacle…. This talented company is one to watch” Fest  

Tom Dale’s sinuous and feral choreography combines with music by drum and bass band SION, Berlin based artist POLE, Susumo Yakota, Aphex Twin and reggae superstar GENTLEMAN to create a performance that is both menacing and touching. 

Five hooded figures cut across society to challenge the twitching landscape that sustains and detains them.
An assault on complacency; RISE is exhilarating, edgy and beautiful, taking the audience into the heart of our claustrophobic communities.

“Dale’s edgy new work takes the temperature of Britain.” Guardian - Pick of the Week
