Event Description :  Dance performance by Candoco Dance Company.

Candoco Dance Company presents the stunning duet Studies for C by award-winning choreographer Javier de Frutos. Taking inspiration from Tennessee Williams’ play Camino Real and Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot, Studies for C depicts a couple trapped in a stagnating relationship, unable to escape the domestic world they inhabit because their reliance on each other has become so strong.

Mexican wrestling masks and ranchera music by Lila Downs underpin the emotional powerplay of the dance. The costumes, designed by de Frutos, feature the writings of Mexican revolutionary Emiliano Zapata, who famously said, ‘I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.’

Choreographer: Javier de Frutos

Lighting & Design: Javier de Frutos

Music: Lila Downs, Yanahuari Nin, La Bamba, La Cucaracha from the album Una Sangre Yunu Yucu Ninu and Pobre Changuita from the album La Sandunga.
