Scottish Ensemble and Andersson Dance present the world premiere of their second music-and-dance collaboration. PRELUDE - SKYDIVING FROM A DREAM is opening 9 Nov 2018 at Tramway, Glasgow (UK). Fusing music and movement, musician and dancer, PRELUDE – SKYDIVING FROM A DREAM takes three rich pieces of music that push at the boundaries and restrictions of artistic expression and creates something entirely new. Combining playful, dynamic choreography with razor-sharp live performance, musicians and dancers blur their roles and break the rules as they explore the very human paradox at the root of all three pieces: our need to seek out order amongst disorder, and the urge to tear apart our self-imposed rules and restrictions and embrace the adventure of what lies beyond. More information here. Scotland Tour 2018: 9-10 Nov 2018 Tramway, Glasgow, 13 Nov 2018 Dundee Rep Theatre, Dundee, 15 Nov 2018 Eden Court, Inverness.
