Marcus Whale is a musician and performance-maker. Building on an eclectic twenty-year music career, works hybridise experimental music, dance and performance forms in exploring the tension and spontaneity of the performative moment, often moving off the stage and into the room. These performances, presented across club, theatre and more makeshift contexts, draw from the pageantry of religious ritual, queer performance and horror film.
