Sydney Dance Company is returning to The Art House with their new full company, full length production, momenta, on November 9.
The Company is the latest internationally renowned company to include a stop on the Central Coast, relieving locals of the need to travel and giving a welcome opportunity to support the surrounding local businesses of Wyong.
The newest work by artistic director and choreographer Rafael Bonachela has been described as ethereal yet powerful all at once.
It pushes the limits of the human body, chases the dancers with moving lights, and lives up to the reputation of the long-standing leaders in contemporary dance, Sydney Dance Company.
The relationship between Sydney Dance Company and The Art House continues to grow and The Art House is pleased to be able to bring to the Central Coast high calibre performances such as momenta, the first full length, full company production to tour since 2021.
As a first-time collaboration with Elizabeth Gadsby – the most sought-after set designer currently in Australia- reviewers and audiences alike are left in marvel at the incredible set and costumes that complement the aesthetic and movement of the dancers and vice versa.
Gadsby and lighting designer Damien Cooper have somehow created a stationary cloud on stage, not to mention the giant swinging pendulum of lights that floats and moves around the dancers like a spaceship.
This production is worth seeing for the incredible set and overly impressive athleticism, concentration, focus and fluidity of the dancers.
The Company will also be conducting an after-school dance workshop on Friday, November 8 for children aged 8-12 with some dance experience, spots are limited.
