The Fall and Michael Clark

[Marfmar1]

Nice ass chaps!

[orchidtender]

Does anybody know the name of the dancer in the turquoise top? She's in the "Copped It" video, too. She's amazing.

[justnicknet]

@orchidtender Ellen is her first name, I believe. I'd run into the other room to check my Michael Clark book, but I'm sure if you google the ellen who worked with him you'd find it.

If you Google "I Am Kurious Oranj" you'll get all the info you want - the Wiki page is a pretty good start.

[Givemeconvenience]

Opps sorry I just realised this is a piece they did on a UK TV show - The old Grey Whistle Test - I think. Prior to the I Am Kurious Oranj project.

The song is calles "Lay of the land"

HTH

[LoveToDance1991]

[0amelanie]

The babe in the green jumper dress is Ellen Van Schulenburch, and I've had the pleasure of working in one of her dance pieces in the 90's.! Toutes Femmes based in Newcastle.FYI.

@televesion5 Oh my God, thanks for mentioning bodymap. Been trying to remember that name for ages, much to my frustration!

Costumes courtesy of the late, great LEIGH BOWERY - or at least MC copied them?!

[brightonfineanddandy]

Michael Clark & the late Leigh Bowery worked together a lot. See MC's show at Barbican Theatre 31 Oct-10 Nov 2007, you'll see Leigh Bowery's costumes there too.

[televesion5]

the costume were by bodymap, they were very big as well in the 80's. nobody, coping anybody. if you do not know, google badymap

[MISSkitchy]

I love this!

[nomorehierros]

For anyone into the Fall, take a look at the "Can" clips on YouTube ( if you haven't already) A lot of common ground.

[jjj7477]

Wonderful and frightening.....
