More Grimm Desires back to top

A winner of the Jerwood Award for choreography, Maresa Von Stockert’s work is characterised by an engaging mix of dance theatre, dark humour and social comment that gets under the skin and stays on the mind.

Letting the audience revisit long forgotten dark corners of the memory, More Grim(m) Desires exposes five well-known fairytales and their underbelly of deeply rooted human instincts, fears and desires.

Pushing the boundaries between different art forms, this dance theatre sextet merges captivating visual theatricality with highly imaginative dance and a unique use of set and props.

Quotes about More Grim(m) Desires

‘A fantastical excursion into gothic horror, sly wit and mischievous social comment’ The Times

‘Stockert has a unique way of looking into the world – both scrupulously focused and wildly hallucinatory’ The Guardian
