The Counting/Ocular Proof, part of Next Wave's 'Things that Dance' program, is a double bill by young, tough and talented dancers that sets out to explore and exploit the body's senses.

Grotesque Beauty is a part theatre, part dance work created by Emma Anglesey, who was recently accepted into St Martins’ new ‘Next Gen’ program.
