Bottoms Up: Two Destination Language Reclaim the Can-Can at Dance International Glasgow What do we do with a dance that has been choreographed into obedience? For Katherina Radeva and Alister Lownie of Two Destination Language, the answer lies not in nostalgia but in disruption. In Bottoms, premiering 14–15 May at Tramway as part of Dance International Glasgow, the duo confront the legacy of the can-can with irreverence, joy, and a deeply political edge.

Steve McQueen’s film installation Grenfell, a stark reflection on the 2017 Grenfell Tower fire that claimed 72 lives, will open a three-year national tour at Glasgow’s Tramway on 8 March 2025. Running until 23 March, the free exhibition presents aerial footage of the tower, captured six months after the tragedy, before it was hidden behind hoarding. The work aims to ensure the disaster remains in the public eye, arriving at a time when the fire’s aftermath continues to stir debate.
