This summer, Quays Culture will host a one-night only, exclusive outdoor performance, with the critically acclaimed, world-class dance circus production company, Motionhouse. And adding to this exciting event, is trampoline artist extraordinaire Max Calaf Sevé.
About
Max Calaf Sevé’s contemporary circus act will provide further entertainment to families and friends, ahead of Motionhouse’s showcase spectacular, with the stage set close to the waterfront. Max Calaf Sevé will be performing his popular ‘Anyday’ show, which embarks on a journey of freedom for a lonely man and his bird; journeying from absurd and comedic moments, to sophisticated and melancholic. This up-tempo, highly visual performance is perfect for all ages to enjoy.
Motionhouse will then take centre stage at Quays Culture’s Summer Showcase, with a performance of its electrifying new dance-circus, inspired by the role of electricity in the human body, Charge.
Charge is an exhilarating new multi-media show about energy, and for the first time it will be re-created as an outdoor spectacular, in partnership with the pioneers of outdoor arts and cultural events, Quays Culture.
On Saturday 9th June 2018, Max Calaf Sevé ‘Anyday’ will commence at 8.30pm, to the rear of the MediaCityUK Piazza, and Charge will be performed at 21.30, on the Piazza – a one-show-only experience that is FREE for all to enjoy.
Quays Culture brings this exciting fusion of art and science to the public realm, with an awe-inspiring 70-minute production, that has never before been seen at Salford Quays.
From the electrical charge that sparks human life, to the beating of our hearts and the memories we make, Charge sees six performers use dance and acrobatics to delve deep into the human body, tracing the incredible story of energy in our lives, to breath-taking effect. Digital projections create a world on stage where dancers and images interact seamlessly, bringing to life stories of energy in our own bodies and humans as energy manipulators.
