Under the artistic direction of Luca Silvestrini, Protein creates witty and thought provoking dance theatre by putting human behaviour under the choreographic microscope. Accessible to a diverse range of people, the company’s work in theatres and non-theatre spaces blends humour, text, music and movement, holding up a mirror to our lives and revealing ourselves, warts and all.
Alongside work in professional contexts, Protein’s engagement with the public as participants in education and community dance projects stamps the company’s personality on cross-generational productions and creative activity in educational settings.
