Nicholas Clark Management presents

100 Years of the History of Dance – as told by one man in 60 minutes

This one-man play follows Jacob: a schoolboy challenged with presenting a school report on the history of dance.

Exploring the lives of influential choreographers including Martha Graham, Merce Cunningham, Bob Fosse, Rudolf Nureyev, Pina Bausch, Lloyd Newson, Gene Kelly and Paula Abdul, Jacob not only talks about them, but demonstrates their signature styles at the same time!

Ballet, jazz, hip hop, modern and contemporary dance are all addressed, as Jacob questions the difference between ‘influence’ and ‘plagiarism’, and begins to question his own legacy.

“Joseph Simons instinctively understands timing, the real surprise, and the right humour - he is a kind of magician!” - Anna Volksland
