Overview

Dance isn't a one-size-fits-all medium, even when it comes to something like ballet. Sure, the term immediately makes you think of tutus, leggings, pointe shoes and pirouettes; however, versatility and making something unique sits at the heart of the artistic style of movement and performance.

Let Bespoke make that plain, in case you need more convincing. For three nights, the Queensland Ballet steps away from its big productions of classic works at QPAC and heads to the Brisbane Powerhouse for something more diverse, contemporary, experimental and intimate.

Here, in three new pieces, art forms and ideas collide before your very eyes — not only in dance, but in lighting, fashion, sound and music. QB provides the folks leaping and spinning on stage, Katie Noonan and electronic-beats project cln help whip up some accompanying sounds, and the choreographers calling the shots include Amy Hollingsworth, Stephanie Lake and Jack Lister.
