about

Presented by The Cultch
Produced by Tentacle Tribe (Montreal)

Transcending the boundaries between street and contemporary dance in a unique signature, DIRT is a striking piece for five virtuoso performers.

Through its raw expression, this creation is a critique of humanity’s conquering relationship with the planet. The quintet mixes puppets and movements in an unusual conceptual hip-hop. Choreographed by Elon Höglund, this work is a profound meditation on our ancestral connection with the Earth.
