SWEET APOLLO

REX LEVITATES DANCE COMPANY presents Sweet Apollo, a new dance piece by award winning choreographer and Rex Levitates’ Artistic Director Liz Roche.
Sweet Apollo is inspired by the 1928 Stravinsky/Balanchine ballet “Apollo”, which tells the story of the Greek god Apollo; his birth, his encounters with Muses of poetry, mime and dance and his ascendance as a god. Exploring myth and memory, the dancers in Sweet Apollo inhabit various modern landscapes and eras within the piece creating an evocative, intimate and intensely energetic performance.
Wonderfully danced by a cast of four with a driving original sound score which features music from the Beatles, Bob Dylan and Maria McKee and original artwork by Brian Hogan from Kila, Sweet Apollo promises to be an innovative and compelling night of dance filled with moments of exuberance and delight.
