JOE

In Winter

"This Year Winter Comes Early"

Joe returns with a new solo dance work. An intoxicating physical journey that explores how the heart and spirit survive nature's coldest and most desolated and isolated winter season. After receiving a rejection letter we find Joe plunged into the depths of an emotional winter.

"Rarely do you get the chance to sit so close to an exceptional dancer. Louis Kavouras is a beautiful, expressive performer, capturing with real insight the pain and dislocation at the end of a love affair. Whether leaping around the stage in wild abandon, or stripping from his salmon pink suit and walking naked into the Nevada snow, he is utterly compelling. This close we see every contour, every drop of perspiration on his fit, tattooed body. It is the perfect Fringe show in that its intimacy is its strength. Tender, erotic and full of nuance."

-John Binnie, The Festival List,

Edinburgh Scotland.

Premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe festival August 2001.
