A looming monolith splits in two, then three, then six. Bathed in shadow and golden light, bodies tremor, crumble, and rebound, dressed in the shirts and trousers of another generation. Scenes of war and collective resilience form and dissolve.

UK-based Israeli choreographer Hofesh Shechter and his 10-person troupe return to the Next Wave Festival with a staggering vision of uniquely European implosion: a man-made monument cracking beneath the weight of human violence. Propelled by the driving, cavernous beat of Shechter’s own original score, dancers bend but do not break, while a live string quartet clad in flak jackets scores the end of romance.

Featuring powerful scenic design by Tom Scutt, Grand Finale devastatingly captures the brink of cataclysm and the collapse of a mythic society.
