THREE
ABOUT THE SHOW
Evocative, visceral, invigorating – Australasian Dance Collective’s THREE returns in 2024 with a new triple bill showcasing three bold choreographic voices in a nexus of sound and performance. Witness the stunning versatility of the ADC company artists through these boundary-pushing new creations.
Award-winning choreographer and contemporary dance artist, Jenni Large, is joined by long-time collaborator, Anna Whitaker, a composer with a palate for experimental, acousmatic works. Large’s work is described as a fusion of the personal, political, and transformational forces of embodiment.
One of Australia’s most exciting talents and leading multidisciplinary artist, Alisdair Macindoe, returns with a new commission and composition. Macindoe’s work spans performance and technology and his distinct ability to coalesce dance and music creates truly exhilarating experiences for audiences.
Following rave reviews, Brisbane will finally have the chance to see Amber McCartney’s highly acclaimed and provocative solo work, Tiny Infinite Deaths, set to a pulsing, experimental soundtrack by Makeda Zucco.
ADC’s THREE provides a platform for creative risk-taking, elevating a myriad of voices to produce new and invigorating art. Heralded as an experience “which will remind you what it feels like to be human – to be alive”, THREE 2024 is set to be just as extraordinary.
INSIGHT MATINEE
While we welcome school group bookings to any performance, the Insight Matinee on Thursday 21 March 12pm, has been specially created for school students, young dancers and educators.
Artistic Director, Amy Hollingsworth, shares aspects of the creative development of each of the works in the program with the opportunity for questions from the audience. For a true behind the curtain experience, the audience witnesses the technical changeover between the works and insight into the production elements.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Established in 1984 as Expressions Dance Company by Maggi Sietsma AM, the company has created more than 180 works by 80 national and international choreographers. Harnessing the talent of an extraordinary ensemble of six dancers, the company has achieved significant recognition through national awards, including three Helpmann Awards and three Australian Dance Awards.
Brisbane-based ADC is a significant cultural resource and a leading provider of dance performance and sector development. We recognise the need to be nationally and internationally connected, represented through our diverse range of local and global partnerships.
Our core desire is to harness the power of the collective. Our signature is one of plurality not a singular fingerprint. In all areas of creation and performance we work as a collective where like-minded individuals have robust and invigorating conversations that give rise to new dance, to new art.
ADC invests in artists and art and cultivates interdisciplinary collaborations and imaginative partnerships. Through dance, we embrace an intergenerational focus and innovative co-creations — eliciting and presenting these myriad voices and forms to create something never seen before.
