Entity springs from Wayne McGregor’s ongoing interest in neuroscience. One of the most inventive contemporary English choreographers, McGregor investigates the relationship between brain and body, and the way the brain’s signals transmute into movement. Entity is an unrepeatable mix of science, cybernetics and modern dance, where an enveloping set of LED lights forms a hypnotic background to the dancers’ mathematically precise movements, powered by the suggestive, thudding soundscape created by Jon Hopkins and Joby Talbot. Besides being the founder of Random Dance, Wayne McGregor is the youngest ever appointed Resident Choreographer of legendary Royal Ballet, and also advises in theatre and film, as Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
