Imagining war as a diabolical dance choreographed by Satan and Death the work descends into a massacre, locking nations of the world into an endless cycle of slaughter & mutilation.

Julie Cunningham is in search of a new kind of desired female body.
Drawing on 'The Lesbian Body', a radical 1973 novel by Monique Wittig, she aims to recite one’s own body and the body of the other, entirely outside of the masculine gaze.
Set to the poetry of spoken word artist and rapper Kate Tempest, To Be Me is a striking and uncompromising choreographic work exemplifying the extraordinary technical ability of Cunningham and her dancers.

LOOK. Point. We. Are moving. Forward.
Raucous, provocative and laugh-out-loud funny. Coming to the Laban Theatre next Tuesday this dancing, dark comedy reveals the absurdity of life as a 3-dimensional, high-definition WO-man.
“Absurd, hilarious... This Really is Too Much deserves the highest praise.” Edfringe Review ****

Watch the trailer: https://vimeo.com/266437776
French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre describes the concept of bad faith (mauvaise foi) as the habit people have of deceiving themselves into thinking that they do not have the freedom to make choices for fear of the potential consequences of making a choice.
Here, choreographer Tara D’Arquian collaborates with poet Jemima Foxtrot and designer Fridthjofur Thorsteinsson to depict a story of self-deception. 20 years after her disappe...arance, we find Nora in a place of nothingness.
Wandering through this parallel world, she encounters uncanny manifestations of her inner darkness. There is no way out of this "non-place" other than to embrace these creatures as extensions of her own self. Will Nora dare to look reality square in the face again?
Bad Faith is 60 minutes without interval.
