Announcement: Marc Rees (Swansea, Cardiff)

Gloria Days
Marc Rees returns from his site specific/installation sojourn with a brand new theatrical work that promises to be his most flamboyant and ambitious project to date. With the support of a world class creative team including opera designer John MacFarlane and Berlin dance duo Rubato, Marc has created an imaginative, compelling and moving piece of dance theatre inspired by an extraordinary character, the 5th Marquis of Anglesey, Henry Cyril Paget.
Known as 'The Dancing Marquis', Paget challenged and subverted Edwardian notions of class, gender, decorum and theatrical propriety. His fantastical lifestyle and subsequent unglamorous downfall provides the focus for this unique multi-disciplinary solo work which premieres in Wales this autumn.
