This event is part of the 2025 Rising festival.
Stephanie Lake Company’s latest creation sees twelve dancers collide with driving rhythms and the stirring sound of a children’s choir in a new dance epic that chronicles a life.
From the womb to the tomb.
Pulsing with energy and sensuality, The Chronicles explores the cycles of life and inevitability of change. Twelve of the country’s top contemporary dancers meet a masterful electro-acoustic score by Robin Fox, which blends driving rhythms with the stirring, ethereal sounds of a children’s choir and a solo baritone singing live on stage.
Lake’s choreography – her signature blend of explosive dynamism and poetic introspection – navigates these cycles with tenderness and power. From the company that brought us Colossus (MIAF 2019) and Manifesto (RISING 2022), The Chronicles is their newest dance epic.
