Company MEK: Father Politics

Acclaimed hip-hop and contemporary dance collective Company MEK presents the eagerly awaited UK premiere of their explosive piece Father Politics. Father Politics unmasks the polarisation of politics, and the manipulation of truth in the media to influence younger generations. Performed by an emerging, multinational, diverse ensemble – this energetic dance piece explores the feeling of powerlessness from a personal perspective. Led by Muhammed Kalkut, Company MEK blend innovative hip hop dance with a diverse political voice. This is a special opportunity to experience Switzerland’s next generation of dance. “Combining powerful, skilful solos with the concentrated energy of perfectly synchronized group elements, the company unmasks patterns of political thought with virtuoso dance.“ – BZ Basel
