Imagine a world without redheads. A world in which the gene responsible for giving people red hair has been bred out of existence.
That concept inspired RED, the latest Dancenorth production, directed and choreographed by Page and his partner Amber Haines, Dancenorth’s Associate Artistic Director.
‘We need to reimagine the way that we’re doing things and responding to and relating to the world, and one another. And if we do not do that, then it feels as though the world will – as we’re seeing across the planet right now, with a host of catastrophic climate events and of course the situation with COVID around the world – that the incredible force of nature will [strike back]. We are biologically inferior, we are affected by the world around us, and at some point, we will need to reckon with that.’
