Tonight! Wayne McGregor’s ‘Deepstaria’ premieres at the 44th Montpellier Danse Festival “Journeying beyond ourselves, we search for knowledge to illuminate and develop our human condition. At the same time, these spaces of infinite blackness, womb-like, are strangely familiar – sounding forgotten connections deep within, and stirring, perhaps, faint echoes of unconscious states of being, floating in places of before and after” - Wayne McGregor Like the jellyfish the production is named after with its capacity for regeneration, ’Deepstaria’  invites us to dream anew our immortal connection with the universe that holds us Find out more information on how to book tickets at @montpellierdanse website Images Photography @deepresravi Performers Company Wayne McGregor (@naiabautistaa & @salomepressac )

His Majesty The King has appointed Wayne McGregor CBE a Knighthood in this year’s Birthday Honours List for his pioneering contribution to the field of dance The appointment recognises Sir Wayne McGregor for how through progressive innovations in performance he has radically redefined dance in the modern era “I am very honoured to be offered a knighthood and grateful to all of the incredible people who have nurtured me for over 33 years in the art form I love - dance. Building a career in the arts, creative thinkers make a vital and significant contribution to public life and to the nation’s economy whilst experimenting, risk-taking and challenging convention. Recognising that the arts matter, this honour reminds us that every young person given access to culture and creative expression has the opportunity to fly.” - Wayne McGregor Image by @paulscala
