Bad Nature

​Australasian Dance Collective (ADC) and the Netherlands’ Club Guy & Roni (CGR) bring together an international team of celebrated creatives, including multidisciplinary artists Boris Acket, Maison the Faux and HIIIT, in this epic world premiere that looks unflinchingly at our relationship to our environment and to one another.

The thrilling dance project, led by ADC Artistic Director Amy Hollingsworth and Associate Artistic Director Jack Lister alongside Guy Weizman and Roni Haver of CGR, will see an extraordinary ensemble of 12 dancers – six from ADC and six from CGR – perform alongside two HIIIT musicians and an independent Australian percussionist.

World renowned Dutch designer, Boris Acket will create the synthetic world of Bad Nature, with transformative environments that blend sound, light, and kinetic sculptures to mimic the natural world. These hypnotic installations will morph and mutate throughout the performance, heightening the sense of change and volatility in a striking portrayal of our world, serving as both a canvas and a container for the performers.

Bad Nature is a production of great scale and ambition, reflecting the best and worst of humanity. Confronting and tender, this unmissable work is rich with allegories of control, love, destruction and ultimately, hope.
