Information

Acclaimed for unique fusions of ancient and modern traditions, and exquisite choreography inspired by the wealth of spiritual practices found throughout Asia, Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan return to Birmingham Hippodrome.

The company performed their mesmerising Moon Water at the very first IDFB back in 2008. And now their visually stunning tribute to pilgrimage, Songs of the Wanderers creates a world of intense reverence, distinctly Asian in its imagery yet with powerful relevance far beyond any geographic boundary.

Evocative movements set to a soundtrack of soulful Georgian folksongs sung by the Rustavi Choir find life on a simple but striking set, including over three tons of shimmering golden grains of rice falling to the floor.
