Mavin
Khoo Dance presents 'Parallel Passions', the company's first national
tour, by the UK Foundation for Dance, co-commissioned by the Royal
Opera House and Sampad. Mavin Khoo leads his company of dancers,
from Russia, France, London and Birmingham in an electrifying programme
of solos, duets and ensemble pieces, set to music ranging from traditional
Carnatic to classical Baroque via 20th century disco and Madonna!
The Spring Tour runs from 30 January until 3 April 2004.
Parallel
Passions includes the world premiere of a new work, alongside critically
acclaimed pieces, choreographed by Mavin Khoo and Michael Beare.
The long-term vision for Mavin Khoo Dance is for a dance and performance-led
repertory company on a ballet model, rather than a vehicle devoted
to a single choreographer's ambitions.
Reflecting
Mavin Khoo's passion for and virtuosity in the disciplines of bharata
natyam, ballet and contemporary dance, the programme explores the
full potential of the bilingual body.
The
programme features:
- Gemini - a solo in ballet
and bharata natyam, choreography by Michael Beare.
- Obsessing
in Line -a ballet duet.
- Ashtapadi
-a bharata natyam solo.
- Lovely
Way to Burn - the world premier of a piece for four
dancers set to Madonna's personal take on the Peggy Lee classic,
'Fever'.
- Images
in Varnam - the full company of five dancers.
