Private Dances

How private can a dance show be when there's full-frontal nudity involved?

Overview

Dance is commonly viewed in two ways. An inclusive, informal gathering of friends, usually drunk, to whatever the DJ decides to spin, or a beautifully skilled choreographed performance that is limited to the stage — it's something untouchable. Private Dances is breaking down some of those boundaries, when they take over Northcote Town Hall in an immersive group of happenings curated by Nat Cursio Co and produced by Insite Arts.

The audience will be confronted with intimate encounters. As they wander around the space there will be small dances, films about dance and most importantly some really high-quality performances. The acts take place in 10 tent-like spaces, making it a one-on-one environment.

The styles will be varied, the dancers will be diverse and the audience's reactions will no doubt be different to what dance usually excites. And we hear there is full-frontal nudity. It's all there, folks.
