Ascent is an inspired triple bill featuring the reprise of Antony Hamilton‘s Helpmann Award-winning Forever & Ever and two new works – I Am-ness by Artistic Director Rafael Bonachela and The Shell, A Ghost, The Host & The Lyrebird by renowned international choreographer Marina Mascarell.
Brimming with physicality, Ascent tempers contemporary classical with futuristic experimentation.
****1/2 “Bold, emotive and visceral, Ascent is a must-see for lovers of dance” – ARTS HUB
I Am-ness calls for the convergence of the moving body and creative mind, as four dancers canvass the nature of existence with euphoric tenderness. Mascarell’s ethereal new work, The Shell, A Ghost, The Host & The Lyrebird, poses many questions as the dancers move through a constantly transforming space. To conclude the triple bill, Forever & Ever fuses dance, techno, high fashion and vivid lighting to hypnotic effect.
Brought to life by Sydney Dance Company’s superb ensemble, this is a creative union at once forceful, sumptuous and dizzying. We are thrilled to welcome back Sydney Dance Company to Tamworth!
