"For Start to Finish, we were inspired by the story of King George III, ‘the Mad King’, who slowly lost his mind due to mental illness. Start to Finish portrays what is inside us as dancers. It relates to the beginning of any relationship, when two loved ones are still young and innocent, thinking about starting a life together, a family – and the madness that follows." – Sol León & Paul Lightfoot
