Fiery Furnaces Working On Sign Language Ballet

Far out...

Share

The Fiery Furnaces are planning a ballet featuring "American event social gestures".

The experimental American brother and sister duo are working on the piece, which will have a "rock'n'roll theme" and will incorporate sign language based dancing.

Matthew Friedberger 'explains', "The 'we're number one' finger and the heavy metal horn-sign and, most importantly, the hand-dancing in Indonesian and Pakistani pop music videos."

Before this treat hits the stage there's a new Fiery Furnaces album 'Widow City' next month.

  • @Gigwise Radiohead, U2 and the Stones, with Muse on another stage so I can watch them instead of U2 would be best of all!
