Overview
Brisbane Festival is gearing up to be a big one this year, with over 1000 events taking place across the city in September. One of the key venues and major partners of the annual event, for the third year running, is Northshore Brisbane — Queensland's largest urban renewal precinct. The riverfront hub will play host to the world premiere of Salamander and the heart-pumping Erth's Shark Dive.
In Salamander, a brand new dance-theatre spectacle, L Shed at Northshore will be transformed into a flooded, climate-fiction world through a mix of light, sound, movement and design installations. The show features spellbinding choreography by Maxine Doyle and an ensemble of dancers, set to evocative music by Australian composer Rachael Dease and performed amongst sculptures by prominent artist Es Devlin.
