This coming Thursday (15th November 2018) at 7.30pm Free Range is proud to present a performance by Sarah Gordy MBE from Culture Device Dance Project and a set from viola player Benedict Taylor and pianist Sam Bailey.

Culture Device Dance Project is an innovative, experimental and cutting edge touring dance company for professional dancers with Down Syndrome. Recent Culture Device projects, Radical Beauty and Drag Syndrome, provocatively challenge conventions of beauty and gender. Similarly, the Dance Project recalibrates our ideas about bodies and movement through fiercely powerful choreography and music. Catch them before their three-month residency at the Royal Opera House.

Sam Bailey is an improviser, composer, teacher and curator. He is the founder-director of Free Range and will be playing short sets on piano throughout the season. For this evening he is joined by the extraordinary viola player Benedict Taylor. Benedict is an award-winning film composer, orchestral player and serial collaborator but is perhaps best known for his mercurial virtuosity as a free improviser. This will be the first time that Benedict and Sam have played together as a duo.
