Shades of Blue / Warrior Queens

Experience first-hand the next generation of leading UK choreographers in this double bill which touches on both a social movement and cultural heritage.

Shades of Blue is a work from Matsena Productionsthat beats to the tune of change, in which performance and protest clash and mould together.

The work combines thunderous choreography, powerful text and a slick score that will not only make you rethink your position in society but celebrate a stronger future which we all have a part in building.

Interrogating displacement, cultural hybridity and power, Warrior Queens delves into ancestry and lineage inspired by the legendary folk myth of Hua Mulan and Virginia Woolf’s Orlando.

From Olivier Award nominated choreographer and House of Absolute Creative Director Julia Cheng, this work explores yin yang energy, identity and the adversity of the modern-day warrior. Embedded in a live musical soundscape with musicians from the Philharmonia Orchestra.

House of Absolute is Philharmonia’s Artist in Residence
