Overview

When Pharrell Williams teams up with choreographer Jonah Bokaer and visual artist Daniel Arsham, something special is bound to happen. And as audiences in Dallas in the US have already discovered, something special has.

They're the only people in the world to have seen Rules of the Game, the multidisciplinary dance, video and sculpture work that heads to Brisbane Festival head of its New York premiere in November. Loosely based on Nobel Laureate Pirandello's controversial play Six Characters in Search of an Author, the piece features Williams' first-ever orchestral score for the stage, Bokaer's crisp, elegant dance moves and Arsham's offbeat, architectural environments in an eight-performer effort that turns dance into visual art.
