About MK ULTRA

MK ULTRA is Rosie Kay Dance Company’s new mid-scale production for 2017. MK ULTRA explores the world of conspiracy theories, the Illuminati and mainstream media mind control. RKDC explores a weird world of symbolism and occult signs and deconstructs it for an aware and an unaware audience.

Kay has spent several years researching internet conspiracy theory, and then working with young people (14-25 years) and academics on the proliferation and effect that these theories have on perceptions of reality. This work uses highly technical, physical and complex dance vocabulary, strong visuals and costuming, combined with Kay’s unique and original choreographic slant and political standpoint.
