About The Work
DEFIANT is: brutal, visceral, sensual and provocative. Combined with an original score by Edgardo Moreno, it harnesses the intense physicality of seven Kaeja dancers—featuring Karen Kaeja. This new work delves into light within darkness, the resonance of rebellion, and the beauty of failure.
“Allen's work is sharp-edged, densely packed and redolent with disturbing beauty.”
