Production photograph of Hofesh Shecter's Uprising which premiered on 24 June 2006 at The Place, London. In 2014, Uprising was restaged at Nederlands Dans Theatre. The photograph is by Christopher Taylor.
Hofesh Shechter’s first major work, Uprising, performed by Hofesh Shechter Company at The Place in 2006, features seven men who emerge from the shadows to bombard the stage with furious energy, bonding and sparring, making up and falling out. Uprising is a highly charged work, set to a throbbing percussive score by Shechter himself, which left audiences gasping.
