A groundbreaking new work of resistance and revolution

Portuguese choreographer Marco da Silva Ferreira returns to Sadler’s Wells with a genre-crossing piece that will command your attention.

F*cking Future explores the dynamics of over-militarisation and toxic masculinity in modern society, while challenging the systems that shape bodies and behaviours.

A highly anticipated new work from the 2025 Rose Prize finalist, Ferreira combines intensive body practice with urban styles to create high-octane, high-performance dance. Experience the power in a vast yet intimate setting, as seven dancers march between rigidity and dilution, discipline and desire. The collective invokes new forms of union and insurgency – we remain here, resisting through movement.

The dancers wear chainmail sleeveless tops, leather pants and white socks. A blue light washes over them. In the background is an audience in the shadows, watching them.
