I Drink The Air Before Me is Stephen Petronio’s explosive new work.

I Drink The Air Before Me explores the awesome forces of nature. With unpredictable twists and turns, the ten dancers whirl like the turbulent forces of a storm.

Featuring a special guest appearance by Stephen Petronio, this exhilarating visual spectacle combines fashion, music and dance.

An irresistible score created by New York composer Nico Muhly will be performed on stage by a live band and a choir of young people. This eclectic soundtrack fuses stunning classical phrases with electronic landscapes and acoustic instruments.

I Drink the Air Before Me was created to mark the onset of the 25th Anniversary year of the Stephen Petronio Company.

Unlike film, theatre doesn't have an official age classification organisation. That means all age recommendations are subjective and should be treated as guidelines unless otherwise stated. With this in mind, we ask you to use your judgement in regards to a show’s suitability prior to purchase. However, we are more than happy to help you make a decision.
