Random Dance has become a creative frontrunner on the British and international dance scene, renowned the world over for its extraordinary innovations in dance. This May sees them returning to PACT to take up a production residency in preparation for the world premiere of Wayne McGregor's latest work AtaXia in London on the 3rd of June. Random's residency here culminates in two exclusive preview showings of AtaXia.


AtaXia [Greek ataxi, disorder: a-, not; see a-1 + taxis,] redraws the traditional hierarchies of dance to generate a fresh and radical look at human physicality. With Random's usually sophisticated ability to co-ordinate muscular movement surprisingly and intimately interfered with AtaXia explores a dislocating loss of control. Drawing on a new team of expertly attuned associates from the diverse worlds of neuroscience, composition, psychology, design, and computer programming Ataxia challenges the very fabric of collaboration. Its a creative friction that confounds expectation.
