Passing Strange and Wonderful

Passing Strange and Wonderful is an intense physical conversation
for two, framed by a rectangle of fluttering light. Evoking a sense of something partially remembered, the piece explores the insatiable
and unattainable desire to break through the shell of another.

 

"The most distinctive work was Passing Strange and Wonderful, by Ben Wright/B Group.. an everyday story told with confidence and pace."

The Independent

What the press are saying

"Passing Strange and Wonderful by Ben Wright is an intense physical conversation for the two fine performers…it shows the desire to break through barriers between a couple with expressive moments of soft tenderness and insatiable desire."

The Stage

 

"The duet, between Keir Patrick and Lise Manavit, is sexually charged, accentuated by choreographer Ben Wight’s brave decision of using no sound accompaniment at all."

Music OMH

 

"Consider Ben Wright’s subtly expressive Passing Strange and Wonderful, in which Delphine Gaborit and Robert Clark pass through shades of quietly desperate tenderness and potentially hurtful passion without striking a single false note."
