Bangarra and The Australian Ballet unite in Infinity
The Australian Ballet’s 50th year starts off with a bang!
The Australian Ballet opens its milestone 50th year with a bold statement about the future of dance. Infinity will see the world premiere of three specially commissioned Australian works by Graeme Murphy, Gideon Obarzanek and Stephen Page.
Stephen Page leads a new collaboration between Bangarra Dance Theatre and The Australian Ballet: Warumuk – in the dark night. Set to a score by award-winning composer David Page, the piece tells a traditional Indigenous story
Completing the triple bill are works by the former artistic director of Chunky Move Gideon Obarzanek, who subverts Swan Lake in There’s Definitely a Prince Involved, and Graeme Murphy, who strips ballet back to its bare essentials in The Narrative of Nothing.
Dates: 24 Feb - 6 March (Melbourne). 5 - 21 April (Sydney)
