Exalt commissioned by Scottish Ballet in collaboration with Indepen-dance
Drawing on each of the dancers’ diverse experience, skills and disciplines, Marc explores whether combined knowledge can exalt into movement greater than the sum of its parts; that challenges the concept of what a dancer is, who can dance and how we create dance. Marc consistently redefines expectations of physicality for dancers, and this new piece is like nothing you’ve seen before!
Exalt premiered on 24 April 2015 at Tramway as part of Dance International Glasgow to rave reviews from audiences and the press.
