Manifesto - Stephanie Lake Company

Stephanie Lake, a leading figure in Australian dance, thinks big. There's something primitive about Manifesto," says the choreographer. You have to experiment with it, without intellectualizing it. In front of a huge watermelon-pink velvet curtain, a fabulous cast of nine performers and as many percussionists burst into life to the score by iconoclastic composer Robin Fox, played on nine drums. In a concert of precision, movements and rhythms become more complex and exciting, culminating in an exhilarating whirlwind of human energy. A feast for the senses!
