In their world that’s dreamy and dazed, watch a singular performer boldly take the stage as he tries to make sense of what is within and without. During Boy, choreographer Niek Wagenaar embarks on a deeply personal and vulnerable journey of reflecting his innermost world. In a fully improvised score, an ethereal yet dynamic physical language mirrors the self as the performer passes contrasting stages of grinding self-exploration and meditative transcendence. As a solo response to his award-winning debut Nymphs, which was created for an ensemble of five dancers, Boy explores the crises of identity, non-conformity and masculinity.
Boy will premiere at Barker Theatre in Turku, Finland on October 9th, alongside new work from their in-house choreographer Evgeny Kostyukov. Tickets will come available soon.
