This October contemporary dance company Igor + Moreno will bring their brand-new dance work, BEAT to The Lowry, Salford.

A psychedelic solo show, BEAT promises to be an exploration of identity and an exploration of endless possibilities. Created in collaboration with Italian dancer Margherita Elliott and celebrated London DJ Martha, BEAT is a performance created for theatre and non-theatre spaces.

One DJ. One dancer. On the spot. Reinventing themselves over and over.

This October as part of EDIT. 05,  Igor + Moreno will also bring their first-ever gallery installation Limited Celestial Space, and their internationally renowned earlier work, Andante to The Lowry.

Igor and Moreno make hypnotic and visceral works about people and our uniqueness. BEAT follows on from international tours of acclaimed works Idiot-Syncrasy, A Room For All Our Tomorrows and Andante.
