THE END

(2019)

IN THIS NEW PIECE, BERT AND NASI DANCE THE END OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP, IMAGINING WHAT A FUTURE WITHOUT EACH OTHER MIGHT LOOK LIKE. ABOVE THE STAGE, AND PROJECTED ONTO A SCREEN, TWO PARALLEL NARRATIVES RUN ALONGSIDE EACH OTHER: THE END OF THE EARTH AND THE END OF THEIR COLLABORATION. IN THE VEIN OF THEIR PREVIOUS WORK IT IS A POIGNANT, SAD, AND FUNNY ACCOUNT OF THE ONGOING ECOLOGICAL CRISIS. THEIR DANCE IS A REMINDER AND A CELEBRATION OF OUR OWN MORTALITY AND THAT OF EVERYTHING AROUND US.

Created and performed by Bertrand Lesca and Nasi Voutsas in collaboration with: Laura Dannequin, Lighting Design: Jessica Hung Han Yun, Lighting Associate: Ruth Green 

Company Manager: Ginny Graham, Producer: Hannah Slimmon for Farnham Maltings.
