Fire, hurricanes, melting ice... These are just some of the disasters facing the human body explored in this production by Mile Zero Dance.
The Disaster Show explores the vulnerability of the human body in the face of climate change.
Using dance, augmented reality and live music, the audience is encouraged to flow through the different spaces, as dancers battle the elements.
