Tavaziva Dance Company perform a sumptuous and evocative new work, loosely based on Georges Bizet’s popular opera Carmen, at Dance City, Newcastle on 12 and 13 February.
Through a synthesis of ballet, contemporary and African dance, Bawren Tavaziva’s powerful choreography is accompanied by a new score composed and arranged by Fayyaz Virji of the acclaimed Warriors International. Played out through the entanglement of desire, deceit and corruption in a township of oil-laden Equatorial Guinea, lingering ancestral voices are at work here amongst the dreams of a better life
