Chapter 3: The Brutal Journey of the Heart
Nine dancers move hypnotically in a work exploring the highs and lows of love and relationships. '...things get broken, and sometimes they get repaired, and in most cases, you realise that no matter what gets damaged, life rearranges itself to compensate for your loss, sometimes wonderfully.’ – A Little Life, Hanya Yanagihara Sharon Eyal and Gai Behar’s acclaimed dance company, L-E-V, returns to the International Festival. This performance forms part of their Love Cycle series, following the company’s performances of OCD LOVE [https://www.eif.co.uk/archive/2018-ocdlove] and Love Chapter 2 [https://www.eif.co.uk/archive/2018-love2] at the 2018 Festival. Nine dancers embark on an intense journey exploring love and relationships. The dancers move hypnotically as an ensemble through emotional highs and lows. The performance features striking costume design from Maria Grazia Chiuri, the Creative Director of Christian Dior Couture. The ethereal score travels through music ranging from blues and country to folk and Afrobeat.
