Pilgrim is a personal piece by Mark Philip: Artistic director, choreographer and dancer in Uppercut Dance Theater. In this soulful solo, Mark reflects on his journey from adolescent to adulthood, from a purposeless teenager to a driven artist, from his upbringing in the Hvidovre suburb to his busy life in pulsating Copenhagen. Every living fiber of Mark Philip has been woven into this bodily tale; from the movement language to the work with the materials at hand: water, stage, and attention from the public.
