About The Flock and Moving Cloud
This Autumn, Scottish Dance Theatre set the stage on fire with two of their most physically daring and dynamic works in an unforgettable evening of dance by two of the most exciting female choreographers in the European dance scene: Roser López Espinosa and Sofia Nappi.
Fasten your seat belt and get ready to take off as the dancers embark on a fascinating journey inspired by the migration of birds in The Flock, then experience the fusion of contemporary dance and traditional Celtic music in Moving Cloud.
Roser López Espinosa’s The Flock made its first UK premiere in 2023 landing on Dundee Rep stage with the fascinating migrations of birds. It is an adventure to move on together and reach a shared goal: to fly through immense landscapes, through the vast open sky.
This mesmerising journey returns us to the animal nature of the body. To effort, tenacity, endurance, teamwork, beauty and the spirit of freedom. Moving Cloud, is an exhilarating meeting of contemporary dance and traditional music showcasing new choreography by internationally acclaimed choreographer Sofia Nappi, and an irresistible musical score of Scottish folk music composed by TRIP, LYRE LYRE, Cormac Byrne, Greg Lawson, Charlie Stewart and Innes White.
"A joyous and expansive act of poetic imagination." Dundee University Review of the Arts –The Flock.
“A triumph of innovative collaboration. Like music bursting into life.” The Scotsman - Moving Cloud.
