Dance4 Presents... TEN - Hetain Patel

I always thought counting to ten was easy…

Somewhere between Bolton, Barbados, Scotland and India three men, Hetain, Mark and Dave, make a journey of discovery. Taking music and the Indian ten-beat rhythm cycle as a starting point, this performance delves with endearing honesty and humour into the usually dry questions of cultural identity.

TEN looks at the meeting place between the red dot on the Hindu forehead and the red cross on the English flag. Negotiating multiple and overlapping identities in Britain today, TEN asks

what is behind this need to belong?

Award winning artist Hetain Patel has created a diverse body of work including photography, video and installations. TEN is his eagerly awaited first piece for theatre.

Dramaturgy: Michael Pinchbeck
