Photo Coverage: Shobana Jeyasingh Dance Presents MATERIAL MEN REDUX
Material Men redux is a full length virtuoso piece for two dazzling performers of the Indian diaspora. Their chosen dance styles could not be more different - classical Indian and hip hop. However, they share a history rooted in the dark realities of colonial migration and plantation labour.

Material Men redux is a dynamic and moving exploration of the violence of loss and the creation of new ways of belonging. Material Menredux features a score by acclaimed Australian composer Elena Kats-Chernin including sound design by Leafcutter John. It is played live on stage by The Smith Quartet.
