A mesmerising fusion between movement and visual arts, acclaimed duo Georgia Tegou and Michalis Theophanous present a special preview of their stunning new work, Reverie.

Arriving at The Lowry for two sure-to-be spectacular performances on Tue 20 Sep and Wed 21 Sep, audiences will be offered an early glimpse at the new work before its UK premiere at the Dance Umbrella Festival next month.

Renowned for their signature ‘dance-as-design’ creations, Reverie promises to conjure a fantasy-like world where characters evoke a surreal and swirling dreamlike state.

Exploring how memories and our past shape our collective narrative, Reverie draws inspiration from the use of archetypes in Lewis Caroll’s Alice and Carl Jung’s theories on the subconscious, and draws connections between the known and unfamiliar to demonstrate how interchangeable these states can be.

Tegou recently created Ochre for ZfinMalta – National Dance Company Malta and co-directed the sold-out family production Underwater with Xenia Aidonopoulou nationally and at Sadler’s Wells.

Movement artist Theophanous has collaborated with numerous impressive names and companies including Greek theatre director and choreographer Dimitris Papaioannou, and most recently performed in Transverse Orientation, as part of Dance Umbrella 2021.
