Emergence, the touring postgraduate dance company of Joss Arnott Dance and University of Salford presents a new triple bill of adrenaline-fuelled dance for this year’s programme performed by a new company of extraordinary dancers all set to new, originally composed music.
The first piece titled Our Guests is presented by Jason Mabana – a choreographer and contemporary lecturer based in London. He teaches at Rambert School and lectures in some of the biggest dance conservatoires in the world including Alvin Ailey School, Juilliard, University of The Arts Amsterdam and Royal Ballet School. Jason worked closely with the Emergence dancers to choreograph this vibrant, technically precise visual piece.
The second piece created by guest choreographer Faye Stoeser is called Rapture. Faye is a UK based dance artist with a career which spans from the contemporary dance sector to the commercial industry. This highly charged piece incorporates her artistic signature which has a base in contemporary dance and is influenced by underground battle and club dance styles.
Artistic Director Joss Arnott and assistant choreographer Lisa Marie Robinson
complete the programme with a restaging of Euphoria from 2025 which features Arnott’s signature, exhilarating movement language. The piece explores the complexities of our ego, demonstrating a journey that leads to euphoria, allowing the dancers to lose their inhibitions and become the best versions of themselves. Be prepared to witness an exquisite interplay between movement and music all of which is accompanied by electrifying new music by Arnott’s long-term composer and collaborator James Keane.
