Clowns (2016), Hofesh Shechter's first creation for NDT, studies the complexity of being alive, of fighting for shared values, and the raw, human desire for liberation. Originally created to entertain the upper class, clowns found clever ways to express uncomfortable truths and mock society – using the stage as their defence. Just like clowns did for queens and kings in eras past, Shechter holds up a mirror to his audience, revealing the truth of life in the guise of entertainment.

With this reprise, we once again get to experience the energetic intensity of a choreography revolving around both darkness and light, as opposing but inextricably connected forces of life. Supported by Shechter's own hypnotic soundtrack, Clowns finds the perfect balance between order and chaos.
