Double Bill - Trash 1: Assault Event / Sean Tuan John

Powerhouse, Victoria Studios, Shakespeare St. 8pm. £4 (£3 concs)

Assault Event Company - 'Speed'.

Clubland connoisseurs Assault Event Co. plunder the repertoire of skateboarders to grasp the quick-fix culture of a throwaway society. High impact movement shot through with stop/start energy is interlayered with experimental electronic sound, in a searing music-dance meltdown.

Sean Tuan John - 'O Brutus'

The artist raises a toast to the slimeballs of society, the misfits and anti-heroes, the losers and bit part players on the edge of normality who want little to do with the world, but would kill for a hamburger or a handbag. A subversive and speedy performer, he combines terrifying rage-fuelled physicality with sardonic wit and over-the-top laughs, in a lavish tribute to those at the bottom of the heap.

Co-commissioned by Contemporary Archives, Chisenhale Dance Space London and Dance 4 for NOW ninety7.
