GRUPO CORPO
Brazil’s internationally acclaimed dance company make a welcome return to the UK following enormously successful tour in 2005. Grupo Corpo combine the precision of classical ballet with the sensuality and passion of Latin dance rhythms. The 22 dancers fill the stage with elegant, virtuosic and joyful dance which has audiences in raptures.
“Grupo Corpo’s dancers are justly celebrated for their virtuosity, and when 22 of them are moving in rippling, flickering, high kicking unison, the audience are guaranteed a physical thrill”
The Guardian
“Their combination of sharp precision and breezy relaxation is unlike anything I have ever seen.”
The Daily Telegraph
“Grupo Corpo is remarkable for the disciplined, uniform precision of its spectacular dancing, performed by virtuoso dancers who seamlessly integrate disparate influences into their ever-malleable, apparently tireless bodies.”
The New York Times
