The most talked-about dancework of 2007 has been re-imagined for the Roundhouse’s magnificent main space.
In Your Rooms was a hit at The Place, Southbank Centre and Sadler's Wells, catapulting Hofesh Shechter into the spotlight and quickly establishing him as one of the most original artists working in the UK today.


"Choreographed with such verve that its effect is almost ecstatic. It is an arrestingly powerful piece" The Guardian

Now expanded to include 16 dancers and 20 musicians who perform a mash-up of rock, electro and classical sounds live on stage, here the show is presented in a gig-style setting with standing areas and spectacular tiered staging. The result is a truly unique contemporary dance event that pushes the boundaries of dance into brand new terrain.

"Probably the most important dancework to have been created since the millennium The Observer
