About Phantasia

5 Stars

Members of the Corali Dance Company are alluring yet capricious in their performance, moving between fluid and sharp disruptive movements.

4 Stars

It’s performed with considerable verve, and its point – that society determines who is an outsider and who accepted – is resonant.

The Guardian (for previous work)

'What is the sound of a nightmare and what is the sound of a dream?'

Phantasia is a magical and strange world created deep from within the imagination, a double bill of new works created by Corali during Choreodrome 2024, featuring a work-in-progress from their youth company, Kick Up. Join the company and special guest performers for an evening of movement and sound.

These performances are an exciting example of Corali’s multi-disciplinary practice and are made collaboratively with painter Mark Beldan, musician Matt Webb, costume maker Jacob Elliott Roberts, and photographer Jon C Archdeacon.
