“I am no longer accepting the things I cannot change. I am changing the things I cannot accept.” Angela Davis

Exquisite Noise honours the art of assembly. Choreographer Dam Van Huynh (Who has previously brought ĐẸP and Re:Birth to Exeter Phoenix) explores alternative methods of dissent, drawing on noise to embody defiance and celebrating the power of coming together. Sounds of protest against inequalities take centre stage, creating a unique sensory experience through music, lights and movement. This is a dance between disruption and communion, an invitation to wake up our collective spirit in an act of solidarity and care.

Supported using public funding by Arts Council England With further support from The Arts Centre at Edge Hill University, Pavilion Dance South West and Centre 151.

“a highly captivating, emotional and explicit work that challenges how we situate ourselves within(out) our society.” Dance Art Journal, In Realness, 2022
