/ When Time Stops

Natalie Weir’s When Time Stops returns to the QPAC stage, capturing the fragility and beauty of life’s pivotal moments. An ethereal voyage of life-changing moments, Weir’s choreography, set to a soul-stirring score by Iain Grandage, will move audiences with its depth of feeling. ADC’s extraordinary dancers will be joined by guest artist Riannon McLean for a truly haunting and poetic performance.

/ Glass Teeth

One of Australia’s leading choreographic voices, Melanie Lane, treads the slippery realm of dream-thought in her new creation, Glass Teeth. Drawing from the ancient belief that dreaming was considered a supernatural communication or a means of divine intervention, Glass Teeth, in collaboration with UK electronic music visionary, Clark, dances through the uncanny nightmares and fantasies that we are transported to when we sleep.

/ In Your Rooms

Global superstar Hofesh Shechter’s seminal work In your rooms is a visceral exploration of society’s chaotic energy and inner tensions. Shechter’s choreography brings together eight dancers in an electrifying performance, delving into the complexity of our collective existence with unflinching honesty.

Celebrate the marriage between the legacy and the future of ADC with something old, something new and something borrowed.

Season presented by ADC in association with QPAC. Supported by the QPAC 40 program, celebrating 40 years of curiosity, inclusion, gathering and stories.

Australasian Dance Collective also acknowledges the support of the Queensland Government, through Arts Queensland and QPAC, as presenting partner for the season of Blue.
