PUSH
Company Chameleon (Great Britain)

Push is a powerful and insightful male duet that illuminates the different stances we take to understand and relate to each other. The piece explores the complex nature of our psychology – how we sometimes push to exert dominance and control, and then again choose to submit and step back.

Company Chameleon is known for its unique and athletic style of dance, coined by Anthony Missen and Kevin Edward Turner. The two had met at Trafford Youth Dance Theatre in the 1990s and went on to train at the Northern School of Contemporary Dance. After graduating, they worked with some of the most innovative dance companies and choreographers in the world, eventually forming their own company in 2007. Today, Company Chameleon tours internationally, giving over 50 performances each year, both indoors and out. In this way, they have introduced a different side of dance and movement to thousands of young people from all over the world.
