Virginia and Lorna met at the gym, discovered they were both dancers, and wanted to have a dance together!
Lorna teaches step and Virginia is a mathematician, but please don’t hold this against them. They have created dance this dance that reflects their everyday confusion and dissatisfaction. But fear not! This is funky haunting dance theatre to enjoy and contemplate.
Two beautiful and scary reflections on our day to day struggles, the fight against routine and stagnation, issues of love, order, yearning, gender and map reading are all explored.
Lorna Borrett (UK) trained in London, impressively becoming a BA (Hons). Her studies included Graham and Cunningham techniques teaching her not to smile whilst dancing.
Virginia Kennard (NZ) is a Wellington based choreographer with a background in theatre producing, wine reviewing and high kicks. Choreographing fulfils her need to boss others around.
Don’t miss this haunting and powerful modern dance from two fresh upcoming choreographers.
