Established in 2001, the international touring company presents Bare Bones The Decade, a presentation of iconic solos and duets from its previous productions, performed up-close and in-the-round. A number of high-profile choreographers have worked with the company over the last decade, and Bare Bones The Decade features choreography from previous productions by well-known names Hofesh Shechter, Carol Brown, Charlotte Vincent, Jasmin Vardimon and Luca Silvestrini.

David Massingham, Artistic Director of Bare Bones and DanceXchange (dx), comments: “It’s been a really amazing ten years of working with fantastic performers and brilliant choreographers. This selection from our history really epitomizes the spirit of the company. I love each and every one of these great works.”

2011 not only marks the ten year anniversary of Bare Bones, but also celebrates ten successful years of dx being based at Birmingham Hippodrome. dx, a powerhouse of dance responsible for helping to take British dance to a worldwide stage, has supported the production of over 50 major touring works, including Bare Bones, in the last decade. Bare Bones The Decade features as part of dx’s special anniversary line-up which also includes international artists TAO Dance Theatre, Frauke Requardt and Aakash Odedra.
