Description:

Australian Marc Brew was 20 years old and an up-and-coming young dancer when he ended up in a wheelchair after a car accident. Today he is an internationally recognized choreographer and a world leader in the development of inclusive dance works. Brew has been part of a wave of multi-talented artists based in Scotland.

 

In un-be-known, nine dancers with and without functional variation meet - in a work that combines fierce physicality with tenderness. The result is honest, unsentimental and deeply human dance art.
