In Delirious Night, the Danish choreographer transforms the night into a wild party where dance spreads like wildfire. Following on from The Dancing Public, this new work draws its inspiration from the dancing manias of the Middle Ages and the spirit of carnivals. To an energetic score by Will Guthrie, performed live on drums, the piece celebrates a new way of being together, far from any social order, free and alive.
