Australian Ballet Contemporary Triple Bill 20:21
The most innovative dance of the last two centuries.
Overview
The best of both 20th and 21st century dance meet in The Australian Ballet's new contemporary triple bill, 20:21. After a cracking opening in Melbourne in August, November 5 will see it come to the Sydney Opera House on for 18 performances.
Leading the trio is the world premiere of Filigree and Shadow, a striking, hard-hitting, challenging piece from resident choreographer Tim Harbour. It features an original electronic score by 48nord and an architect-designed set by Kelvin Ho.
“He [Tim Harbour] is always keen to push himself and the dancers to discover new ways of using their ability to push the ballet form further, and find humanity and truth through dance," said David McAllister, artistic director of The Australian Ballet.
Meanwhile, George Balanchine's jazz-infused, Stravinksy-soundtracked Symphony in Three Movements will open the show, followed by Twyla Tharp's sport-inspired, sneaker-wearing In the Upper Room, set to the music of Phillip Glass.
