Every decision george makes is shaped by a clear sense of purpose.
George is a contemporary ballet choreographer whose artistic voice is shaped by his diverse training background. Rooted in classical ballet technique, he deconstructs and reimagines its foundations, blending contemporary movement and influences from other dance styles. His work is driven by a desire to create distinctive pieces that each have their own identity. Inspired by queer artists and perspectives, George explores stories that have often been overlooked within traditional art forms, bringing fresh, human, and modern narratives to the stage.

During March 2026, George went to The Lowry Theatre, Manchester for a research and development artistic residency. Working on the development of Consumption in this space was an exceptional experience for George. Collaborating with dancers and voices that George believes deserve greater visibility has been central to his process. Through this work, George aims to introduce a more modern perspective on ballet and contemporary dance to the UK, but through the artists perspective. This experience has served not only as a period of research and development, but also an opportunity to create work that resonates with the sensibilities of a modern audience. After the three day development, George presented the work to The Lowry to positive feedback. This has further expanded his creative thinking, generating new ideas and reinforcing his conviction in the potential of this work. George’s ambition is to bring this work to a main stage, expanding its scale to involve larger ensemble of dancers and fully realise its artistic potential.
“Ive always been fascinated by the lie of polish - the illusion that a dancer is untouchable, seamless, complete. But inside, it’s rarely that clean. That’s a constant abrasion between what is demanded and what is felt. Over time, that fraction doesn’t just disappear; it embeds itself. It festers quietly, like an infection beneath the skin - fed by repetition, expectation, and the pressure to appear effortless.
What interests me is that internal eruption. The rave that no one sees. A chaos of sensation - exhaustion, adrenaline, pleasure, resentment - all colliding at once until the body can no longer contain it. It becomes a kind of uncontrollable consumption, where you’re not just performing anymore, you’re being devoured by the very act of dancing.
Exposing that rapture - where control dissolves, where the body betrays the facade, and where the truth of being a dancer finally spills out.”
