AUGUST

As the sun set everything changed.

AUGUST is inspired by sunsets. A moment between day and night. A space between routine and release, restraint and recklessness.

Bathed in the fading colours of dusk and the neon accents of night, the National Dance Company Wales dancers navigate a sensual landscape that shifts between the perilous and the beautiful.

AUGUST is about endings and saying goodbye. It is about the changes that fling us together and tear us apart.
