‘Dance on Screen’ Series: Revisor (Film Screening) by Kidd Pivot (Canada)
Programme and Trailer Creative and Production TeamTicketing and Enquiries
A multi-camera performance capture of REVISOR: the new, critically acclaimed dance-theatre hybrid created by choreographer Crystal Pite and playwright Jonathon Young, winner of the National Dance Awards 2020 for Best Modern Choreography.
Young and Pite revise an archetypal comic plot - The Government Inspector by Nikolai Gogol - to serve as the basis for choreography in a true hybrid of contemporary theatre and dance. In Revisor, eight incredible dancers embody the recorded dialogue of some of Canada’s finest actors, exploring conflict, comedy and corruption in the potent relationship between language and the body.
Revisor reunites the creators of the international stage hit Betroffenheit (winner of the Olivier Award for Best New Dance Production 2017) with director Jeff Tudor, who won the Rose d’Or (Arts) and Golden Prague Awards 2018 for his capture of Betroffenheit for the BBC.
Produced by 3 minutes West & Kidd Pivot. Distributed by EuroArts Music International GmbH.
