Grand Finale
Choreography and music by Hofesh Shechter

'A wild waltz for the end of time' The Guardian

One of the British dance scene’s hottest properties’ (New York Times), Brighton Festival Associate Artist and former Guest Director Hofesh Shechter is back with his exhilarating new work.

Grand Finale is at once comic, bleak and beautiful, reflecting the uncertainty and confusion of the troubled times we are living in. Characteristically visceral, Shechter creates a vision of a world in freefall, full of anarchic energy and violent comedy.

‘Everybody’s an observer these days,’ Hofesh says. ‘None of us feel personally responsible, even though all of us are equally responsible. It’s a funny place we’re in.’

With an exceptional international ensemble of ten dancers and six live musicians, Grand Finale is part gig, part dance, part theatre, and wholly original.
