“Assembling a dynamic team of seven dancers at the height of their powers, Kidd Pivot Frankfurt RM artistic director Crystal Pite continues her investigation into the metaphoric implications of movement and performance. Dancers sculpt space in real-time, working inside a form that is constantly in a state of vanishing. In Lost Action the artists embody both the dance and its disappearance; the inevitable dissolution of their work and their bodies made poignantly apparent.
Fuelled by the outstanding abilities of these world-class performers, Lost Action begins as an analysis of the articulated and amazing body, and unfolds to reveal the human element at the centre of the work: the ephemeral body moved by the potent heart.
Lost Action is driven by an original score composed by long-time collaborator, Owen Belton, and lighting design by Jonathan Ryder.”
