Join Company Chameleon for the world premiere of Refuse, their powerful outdoor dance performance exploring asylum and migration.
Incorporating a set and a cast of six dance artists, the production is Chameleon’s most ambitious outdoor choreography to date. A play on words, the performance brings home the raw reality of people being refused and treated like refuse when they leave their homeland in search of a better life.
The choreography is physically powerful, vigorous and intense. The dancers use their bodies, props and the set to explore different feelings, experiences and scenarios. The set imaginatively transforms the landscape, as the dancers move emotively through each scene, on a harrowing journey where it’s hard to find hope.
Through dance and movement, Refuse challenges you to think again about migration and asylum, and reflect from a different place to the one created by the media. Refuse asks you to reflect on your thoughts from the place of being human.
