MULTI-AWARD winning artist Lea Anderson will return to the UK touring circuit with Ladies and Gentlemen.
It follows a six year absence.
Lea will perform at the Theatre Royal Winchester – the only Hampshire performance on this current tour.
Lea Anderson has led two of the UK’s foremost contemporary dance companies for over 25 years, namely The Cholmondeleys and The Featherstonehaughs.
Inspired by mingling fading music hall memories with a sprinkle of surrealism, Ladies and Gentlemen is a witty and absorbing visual spectacle in which choreography, music and design conjure the all but forgotten stage show of six has-been performers.
Besieged by ever shifting, inscrutable and enigmatic props, Man, Woman, the Twins, Pet and the Other One present misremembered routines and hazily recollected punch-lines in a complex and tightly knit choreography of objects accompanied by sound and music they perform themselves.
The result is an eccentric, surreal and often hilarious theatrical experience where regret and failure meet.
Ladies and Gentlemen will be at the Theatre Royal Winchester tomorrow (Wednesday), at 7.30pm.
