New Year Ballet "‘Still Life’ at the Penguin Café"

Set to the disarming avant-pop music of the Penguin Café Orchestra, a world music ensemble that was a sensation in the 1980s, and performed by dancers in realistic animal masks, this work has an underlying message about modern environmental issues and a scathing criticism of civilisation.
