Form Dance Projects and Riverside Theatres Present COMMON ANOMALIES

FORM Dance Projects and Riverside Theatres will present an exciting triple bill of contemporary dance performances by young artists in Common Anomalies from 2nd to 4th November.

Vastly different in style, the three works will explore each of the performer's unique personal histories. The performances adapt breakdance, visual art, contemporary techniques, vogue and folklore styles in dynamic vignettes.

Each performer's work will have a unique approach however the common thread between the pieces is the anomalies of each artist - the fusing of things rarely seen together, to create something unique and personal for each.

Performer Carl Sciberras said, "Myself, Imanuel and Bhenji all hail from families with diverse Asian and European backgrounds. Our ancestry, our experiences and our communities directly impact our decisions, our views and our approaches to making. Although we are very different artists working in different ways, these solos are all personal expressions. This program is an important and exciting venture for us and we're excited to share it with audiences."

Choreographers and performers: Bhenji Ra, Imanuel Dado and Carl Sciberras
