A twisted, dark story of rejection, religion, lust and death, Salomé is based on the themes and characters of Oscar Wilde’s play of the same name.

This sensual dance theatre experience is led by choreographer/dancer team Carmine De Amicis and Harriet Waghorn. Together they have developed an original and beautiful hybrid of Latin, ballroom and contemporary dance. This rich dance vocabulary will be performed by three dancers and accompanied by five live musicians from Hastings Philharmonic Orchestra.

With an original score by Phillip O'Meara, Salomé takes the audience on an extraordinary and dark journey where music and dance bring to life the characters and themes of Wilde’s tragedy.

Since its debut it has performed sell-out nights of Blood Wedding, ‘til Death Do Us... and Tenome – Eyes on Hand.
