THE MOVE
A choreographic commission
The Move is a curated initiative of Dance Hub SA, The Mill & Ausdance SA.
Presented by Adelaide Festival Centre.
WONDER GRIT
Made by Gabrielle Nankivell
in collaboration with Jo Stone
Dramaturgy: Katrina Lazaroff
Wonder Grit throws contemporary dance at competitive cycling to investigate the nature of loss, injury and motivation in times of uncertainty. The show is an energetic two-hander packed with killer dancing, survival tips and Adelaide’s most strenuous monologue. Featuring crowd sourced data, a deadly treadly, and two women with a tonne of experience, Wonder Grit might just be a ride you won’t want to get off.
SATORI
Choreography and Direction: Lewis Major
Dramaturgy: Amanda Phillips
Satori is a Japanese term for awakening. This work explores the states of impermanence and imperfection through an ensemble dance work with stellar dancers. The interconnecting elements transform into a fluidly shifting atmosphere and stage architecture that continually collide, collapse and create.
