Performer: Grupo Corpo

One might comment that the choreography is a bit repetitive. On the other hand, another word for that might be hypnotic.

Brazilian company Grupo Corpo celebrated its 44th anniversary this month with a trip to icy Montreal. True to their reputation, they burst onto the stage of Theatre Maisonneuve like a ball of sunshine, warm enough to thaw the blood and get the heart pumping again.

Competence, discipline and confidence were to be seen in full measure when the Brazilian contemporary company Grupo Corpo performed two works at Sadlers Wells this week.
