About the work:

Maximum is a duet between a female contemporary dancer and male professional bodybuilder, in which the unlikely duo perform a series of movement tasks and intense acts of physical endurance. When a dancer teams up with a bodybuilder, expect a show with real muscle - LITERALLY. 

Maximum reveals subtle truths about the nature of human physicality as dance and bodybuilding collide, under sweltering lighting with a throbbing soundtrack. This is a work of extremes and contrasts: big and small, heavy and light, hard and soft, all unravelling to highlight the ability of two diverse bodies to achieve unity through performance (and a lot of sweat).
