Scottish Dance Theatre presents a quirky and highly original double bill as part of the Edinburgh Fringe. Infectiously enjoyable!

For Fringe, Fleur Darkin brings Scottish Dance Theatre and the One Ensemble together in Miann. A powerful, intimate exploration of relationships, loss and grief.

Scottish Dance Theatre returned to The Place last week with a programme that kept you guessing, laughing and sometimes feeling a little uncomfortable, but undoubtedly the best part of the evening was experiencing the expressive honesty of the performers. Beginning the night was Second Coming by Rubber Band Dance Company’s Victor Quijada, followed by Jo Strømgren’s chilling Winter, Again.

With touching honesty and keen articulacy, Scottish Dance Theatre presented a diverse mixed bill at The Place that contained in equal parts compelling choreography and masterful dancing. The highlight of the night was indisputably Rachel Lopez de la Nieta’s Pavlova’s Dogs, a forty-minute investigation that questions gender roles in the dance world, framed as an early psychological experiment.
