MEN IN MOTION is an evening of three athletic and hilarious dance pieces, earning rave reviews and standing ovations in the Abbey, Edinburgh Fringe and New York by Irish Modern Dance Theatre. The central work is iconic American Choreographer, Merce Cunningham’s stunning ‘Solo’ followed by firm favourite ACTIONS - a sweeping, vigorous duet by French dance sensation, Boris Charrion and acclaimed Brazilian dancer Vini Martins Araujo. John Scott’s Beckett-like Bowing Dance, completes a programme brimming with energy and adventure.
Solo - Merce Cunningham
“Its lunging jumps and scurrying steps appear shockingly wild ... highlight the lasting beauty of Cunningham’s movement language. .... always articulated in a crystal-clear vocabulary” Michael Seaver/The Irish Times
The Bowing Dance
“the work can feel like a brilliant piece of absurdist theater, a meditation on identity, an entry-level primer on choreographic composition or nothing very much at all. Perhaps it’s all those things at once, which is to say, art" Roslyn SULCAS/New York
“within the choreography Scott has managed to blend quick-fire immediacy with slow-burning intellect. ..... there is a satisfying completeness to the dance” Michael Seaver/The Irish Times
“vibrant and witty” Donald Hutera/The Times (London)
“Daring physical feats? Check. Competitiveness? Check. Underlying, shrugged-off affection? Check...... vigorous, sweeping, canted, giant-step, high-kick movements that Scott’s choreography favors ....... It’s wonderfully enjoyable, skillfully paced, and full of small surprises..... In its own way, Actions tells us much about affability under pressure, diligence, and a feistiness that doesn’t negate the men’s respect for each other" Deborah Jowitt/The Village Voice, New York
