Part of the ‘Families at the Barbican‘ event, brings you the RAIN ROOM.
Wayne McGregor Random Dance, with a score by Max Richter on 24 Feb @ 12-5pm, The Curve
You haven’t many days left to get wet and experience a unique fusion of art and movement during the RAIN ROOM exhibition as dancers respond to Rain Room on Sundays.
Random International invites you to experience what it’s like to control the rain. Visitors can choose to simply watch the spectacle or find their way carefully through the rain, putting their trust in the work to the test.
More than the technical virtuosity necessary for its success, the piece relies on a sculptural rigour, with the entire Curve transformed by the monumental proportions of this carefully choreographed downpour and the sound of water.
