In his startling new work Mark Bruce uses theatre-in-the-round and a soundtrack including Sparklehorse, The White Stripes, Queens of the Stone Age and György Ligeti, to plunge the imagination into a raw arena of the otherworld.

As time shifts and figures from myth and ritual collide; gods emerge amongst frenzied cheerleaders, murderous strangers, dogs of war and bedraggled homecoming queens in a heart-searching dance work of savage beauty. The cast of performers includes Greig Cooke, Eleanor Duval, Darren Ellis , Joanne Fong, Caroline Hotchkiss, Elizabeth Mischler and Ino Riga.

'Love And War is an intoxicating carnival of emotions that's bursting with violent passion, rich symbolism and genuine beauty. It's very dark and very, very good.' Suit Yourself Magazine
