VORTEX
Influenced by the works and process of Jackson Pollock and Abstract Expressionism, Olivier Award winning choreographer Russell Maliphant paints his own inspired work with movement, light, shadow & sound to create a visually rich and resonant journey with the exceptional dancers of Russell Maliphant Dance Company (RMDC) and collaborators Ryan Stafford (lighting design) Katya Richardson (music) and Stevie Stewart (costume design).
VORTEX is co-commissioned by Sadler’s Wells, London and supported by Arts Council England, DanceEast, Cockayne, The London Community Foundation, Ipswich Borough Council, and The Foyle Foundation.

“Maliphant, who is classically trained, has used a wide palette of dance forms in this piece, again linking to Pollock who also started from the classical traditions in painting and changed them.” - LondonTheatre1, Marian Kennedy
