The internationally acclaimed dance company, Igor x Moreno bring their latest work to The Lowry this spring. We’re thrilled that the troupe return to Salford with Karrasekare, a contemporary performance inspired by pagan carnival traditions.

Inspired by the pre-Christian traditions of Sardinia and the Basque Country. Karrasekare (the Sardinian word for Carnival) explores the catharsis of communal rituals and cultures, and their relationship to the world we live in now.

After premiering in Rome in 2023, Karrasekare is now on an extensive international tour, which, luckily for us, stops off at The Lowry for one performance this May.
