“Alexander Whitley’s poetic and playful creation captures the alien unknowableness of the universe, as well as its visual magic” The Guardian ★★★★

“Whitley’s choreography is sinuous, sensuous and elemental. The molten bodies of seven excellent dancers are poured into rubbery black bodystockings … and their movements morph like mercury, pooling and dispersing. The group is bound together as if by magnetic force, all individuals but pulled in one direction by the invisible power of the mass. Solar-powered beauty.” London Evening Standard ★★★★

“a spell-binding display of sound and colour from images of the sun which gives our planet life” The Metro

“Absorbing… arresting dance theatre” BachTrack ★★★★
