A performance piece
conceived for Tate Modern by
Lloyd Newson for DV8
takes elements from DV8's stage production the cost of living and combines them with new material to explore the architecture of the Tate Modern building
.... Low and High art/living.
DV8 will take you on a promenade through the public spaces, starting at street level in the Turbine Hall and winding up through the floors to Level 7.
Join us on a journey incorporating dance, circus, physical daring and visual spectacle, with specially commissioned video projection, soundtrack and live music.
