R.O.S.E: L-E-V and Young with Ben UFO

About

Celebrate the freedom, energy and intimacy that run through club culture and dance.

Choreographer Sharon Eyal, Gai Behar and London-based record label Young come together to present a night of dance and music.

Hosted in Manchester’s iconic New Century Hall night club, R.O.S.E brings the dark hedonism of Sharon Eyal’s choreography and artistry of her dancers off the stage and onto the dancefloor.

The evening features new music curated by Young. Club culture icon Ben UFO DJs throughout, playing for both the dancers during performances and the audience between.

R.O.S.E is for everyone – an invitation to watch, to dance, to come together on the floor. Whether you’re a club kid who wants their first taste of Eyal's magic or a dance fan wanting to experience performance up close.

R.O.S.E is a collaboration between Sharon Eyal, an award-winning choreographer, and her artistic director and long-term collaborator Gai Behar, and the London-based multi-arts and record label Young, founded by Caius Pawson.

Sharon Eyal is known the world-over for her intoxicating and boundary-blurring choreography, while Young are long-time collaborators of MIF. Young artists have provided unforgettable MIF moments over the years; from The xx performing 18 intimate shows at a secret location throughout MIF13 to FKA Twigs inviting fans behind the scenes of her MIF15 show – and from Jamie xx composing the score for MIF15’s highly-acclaimed Tree of Codes and Sampha playing an intimate sell-out gig at MIF17.
