L.O.L. | Protein Dance
Nominated for the THEATRE AWARDS UK award for OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN DANCE.
Known for mining witty and profound dance theatre from everyday life, Luca Silvestrini’s award-winning Protein has struck dance gold with L.O.L. (lots of love). In an age of electronic communication this timely, critically acclaimed production puts its six dancers on a quest for romance.
Against a video wall of dozens of screen-gazing individuals, Protein’s cyber souls stylishly nail the language of life online. Talking and dancing at speed, they tackle the baffling etiquette of electronic discourse, make hilarious straight-to-the audience confessions, and dance the physical equivalent of poking and tweeting.
With video animation and original music, L.O.L. sparkles with comedy and is a razor-sharp commentary on our search for love in a new and unusual online world.
