The graduating dance students are poised for big things and after<br />
witnessing their versatility and energy in this rich and varied<br />
season you will know why. Acclaimed Dutch choreographer Nils<br />
Christe returns with Purcell Pieces, a neo-classical work that soars<br />
with breathtaking pace. European‐based Australian choreographer<br />
Lewis Major explores the relationship between theatre, movement,<br />
light, sound and technology. Co-founders of Jukstapoz Dance<br />
Company, Christine Gouzelis and <strong>WAAPA</strong> graduate Paul Blackman<br />
create their signature choreographic mix of movement, physical<br />
theatre and text. Rounding out the program, Kim McCarthy<br />
and Andries Weidemann have chosen the most beautiful solos,<br />
duets and scenes from Tchaikovsky’s greatest ballets; Swan Lake,<br />
The Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker.<br />
