A story of innocence and experience, sexuality and shame, humiliation and defiance, identity and nationality, endings and ancestry.
Written and choreographed by Michael Keegan-Dolan, and performed with dancer Rachel Poirier, How To Be A Dancer In Seventy-two Thousand Easy Lessons presents the profound, accidental, ridiculous banality of lives lived and lives imagined.
