Not In A Million Years

Overview

The work of Kate Champion and Force Majeure is brave in many ways. Incorporating disparate forms of dance and a considered use of words and visuals, they are able to create something that contains distinctive elements and yet is more than the sum of its parts. Their work is contemporary, relevant and accessible; casual in its presentation but distinct in its content and form. Many will remember The Age I'm In, their hugely successful 2008 work which featured at that year's Sydney Festival.

Not In A Million Years looks to both consolidate these gains and extend the company further. One way of doing this is Force Majeure's 'behind the scenes' blog, which has served to document the rehearsal process and provides the opportunity to 'ask questions along the way'. This rare level of transparency is telling: Champion and her company are willing to be queried, challenged and considered. And work like this certainly deserves to be.
