Event Details
A sophisticated showcase of Australian dance
When Stephen Baynes' Molto Vivace first premiered, the Handel score was accompanied by the sound of dropping jaws. Boldly colourful, playful and laugh-out-loud funny, it showed the future of ballet was very bright indeed. This triple bill teams Molto Vivace with Baynes' achingly romantic At the edge of night and the brand-new Halcyon from breakout choreographer Tim Harbour, with music by Gerard Brophy. Athletic, engaging and elegant, Edge of night showcases Australian ballet at its very best.
