Magpie (2007-2009)

An ambitious spectacle that reinvented the old school variety show featured seven contrasting and interlinked duets performed by Antonia Grove and Theo Clinkard, each one a ‘dance gem’ from radically different choreographers. Designed by Fabrice Serafino, four specially commissioned duets – from Mark Bruce, Charles Linehan, Stephen Mear and New Art Club – sit alongside Trisha Brown’s seminal Accumulation from 1971, the first ever piece by Jeremy James and a Bessie award-winning work from Israel’s Yasmeen Godder.
