| “Dreamlike and challenging,
Harmonious Oddity bridges subconscious and conscious realities,
featuring surreal, Fellini-esque scenes played out live on stage
and on film. Dancers perform not only on their feet, but also
on wheels and suspended in mid-air in a wacky and humorous work
that will transport you into another realm,” says Touch
Compass Artistic Director Catherine Chappell.
“Grotteschi explores the myth of the classical body and
grotesque body, how each contains the other, and how they ultimately
transcend any categorisation.”
Founded in 1997 by dancer and choreographer Catherine Chappell,
Touch Compass is a unique New Zealand dance company in which dancers,
with and without disabilities, work together to create inspirational
and thought provoking dance shows.
In 2007 Touch Compass won four tempo° awards. This year the
dance company returns to the tempo° New Zealand Festival of
Dance for a strictly limited season, with these two new works
that have been two years in the making.
Definitely a show not to be missed
Gather your friends together and grab some seats.
