12.05.2009 - 17.05.2009 Both Sitting Duet 2002
Production by Jonathan Burrows and Matteo Fargion.
Sitting on chairs drawn up close to the audience, and with music scores at their feet, the two men draw us into a silent, unexpected and often funny conversation for two pairs of arms.

19.05.2009 - 24.05.2009 The Quiet Dance 2005
Production by Jonathan Burrows and Matteo Fargion. Choreographer Jonathan Burrows and composer Matteo Fargion are among the most widely travelled of UK performance artists and have gained an international reputation for the intelligence, humour and musicality of their shows. At the heart of their work is a love of rhythmic form and the quiet intensity of communication this allows them to share with each other and with the audience. The Quiet Dance is just what it says it is. The Quiet Dance is co-produced by Dance 4 Nottingham, Dance Umbrella London, Joint Adventures Munich, Kaaitheater Brussels and supported by Arts Council England and the Jonathan Burrows Group.

26.05.2009 - 31.05.2009 Speaking Dance 2006
Choreographer Jonathan Burrows and composer Matteo Fargion present the final part of a trilogy of performances, which began in 2002 with Both Sitting Duet and continued last year with The Quiet Dance. This latest piece continues their gentle exploration into how the relationship between music and dance is perceived, and the fragile but permeable boundaries between the two worlds. Their performances are a formal but humourous meditation on the nature of communication, and the relationship between each other and with the audience.
