L U C I D — Chunky Move

Overview

A screen, multiple cameras and a pair of performers are the key ingredients in a new show from one of our favourite local dance companies. L U C I D is the latest work from Anouk van Dijk, the acclaimed choreographer and artistic director at Melbourne's own Chunky Move.

Making its world premiere on Thursday, May 26 ahead of a two and a half-week run at the company's studio in Southbank, L U C I D will interrogate the way in which we imagine, construct and censor our own identity in the face of the hyperconscious modern world. Dancers Lauren Langlois and Stephen Phillips will shift from one persona to the next, expressing fear, control and desire throughout an intimate hour-long show.

Those wanting to delve deeper can attend the performance on Thursday, June 9, which will be followed by a post-show Q&A.
