Form, Line, Dot choreographed by Daisy Knowles.

Form, Line, Dot is a contemporary dance piece exploring the visual artwork of artists Antony Gormley, Shantell Martin, and Yayoi Kusama. Split into three sections, this promenade performance leads the audience through different spaces of the Dance City building, portraying ideas based on the sculptural work, line drawings and circular patterns of the focused artists through movement.
Nirvanic Bodies choreographed by Cara Hogarth

In a relentlessly physical duet, dancers intertwine, seeking nirvana through pulsating beats of house music. Their movements blend seamlessly, embodying the essence of euphoria. Each step resonates with passion, transcending earthly boundaries. Through synchronized motion, they unravel the soul’s journey, igniting a transcendent experience, where rhythm and harmony converge in an embrace.
