ARTISTIC POLICY
Welsh choreographer Sean Tuan John creates movement-based performance work that explores contemporary urban culture and experience through idiosyncratic dance, evocative video, and excessive ‘acting’. Special interests include solo work, site-specific performances, and collaborative work focusing on themes of social commentary, the trash aesthetics of pop culture, psychology, and in-depth investigation into character-based dance.

CURRENT PRODUCTIONS
A distinct and uncompromising performance fusing film and dance to create a visually arresting socio-political performance that precariously treads the line between live art and theatre. At the heart of the production is a filmic and physical investigation of how we and from the eventual physical and mental decline of our bodies.
1 on stage, 2 to 3 on the road
A visually dynamic and highly energetic dance show for five to seven-year-olds based on the idea of entering and exiting different worlds.
40 mins, 2 on stage, 3 on the road, with accompanying workshops

WRAP-AROUND
Creative educational situations with children and adults, focusing particularly on the fusion of professional and participatory approaches to create new presentation and working methods.
