ScottishBallet

The Pump Room (2005)

Choreographer Ashley Page
Music - Nine Inch Nails / Apex Twin

When Ashley Page unleashed this highly charged work for two couples, critics and audiences were unanimous in their praise. Set to a dynamic Nine Inch Nails remix by the celebrated master of electronica, Aphex Twin and building to a stunning climax, this edgy and stylish work pulsates from the moment the curtain is raised and doesn’t pause for breath.

 

Sensual, dark work for two couples, it typified Scottish Ballet's new direction - one woman in pointe shoes, the other in modern pumps
