Muscular. Powerful. Driving. Fearless. Playful. Passionate. These are just a handful of adjectives to describe the movement of Hofesh Shechter, the Israeli choreographer based in London, now widely considered one of the of the most exciting and important new voices in the dance world today. A former dancer with Israel's Batsheva Dance Company, Shechter has assembled a group of 12 dynamic dancers and 5 musicians who will perform two works that are already hailed as masterpieces: his furiously energetic all-men's piece Uprising and his deeply personal and provocative In your rooms.
