Nasc presents an Emma Martin / United Fall production

Night Dances

Night Dances is a bold series of four dance vignettes created by Emma Martin in collaboration with the performers and pounding music of Daniel Fox (Gilla Band).

A ferociously exhilarating performance of pure dance and live music, eschewing hierarchies of style and form, it is an ode to the body and a visceral, sweaty love letter to dance in all its guises.

Inspired by the simple act of dancing, the work is a democratic celebration of dance culture from disparate contexts - clubs to competitions to ceremonial. Revelling in a promiscuity of styles and images, Night Dances expresses fury, rebellion, hope and freedom through raucous choreography, rumbling bass and a desire to reconnect us to the simple power and beauty of people dancing to music.
