Not exactly a dance image, but I am interviewing Martyn Jacques for the book next week and this is a very different interpretation of the word to any I’d have taken directly from dance. The whole thing was enormous fun to photograph, with projections on multiple strings, puppets, interesting lighting and images to challenge the eye, lens and perspective. Their genre-defying music and other-worldly vocals combined to produce an all consuming audiovisual treat, and I’d have gone to see it all three nights if I hadn’t already had commitments.
