3rd July 2015 - 7pm
Venue: Loughborough Town Hall
An intense, compelling and moving experience directed by a multi-award winning choreographer.
James Wilton’s distinctive movement style is raw, powerful and dynamic. Influenced by martial arts, breakdance and capoeira; high-energy episodes are juxtaposed with meaningful moments of calm and reflection. Featuring six engaging dancers with exceptional physical skill, Last Man Standing explores the fragility of human existence. The dancers use their full arsenal of throws, lifts and slides in a desperate, determined fight to survive.
Last Man Standing is commissioned by Dance City with support from Falmouth University, Plymouth Dance, Barbican Theatre Plymouth and Arts Council England, Grants for the Arts.
Following the performance, there will be a special post-show discussion with James Wilton Dance Company.
