Program Note

Throughout time, protocols have allowed humans to survive, however it is the breaking of these same protocols that allows humanity to survive. Drawing inspiration from Frank Herbert’s 1965 science fiction novel Dune, the performers use an irregular movement pattern to traverse the landscape of an otherworldly planet without disturbing its natural order. We witness the rituals and tribulations of the inhabitants of this world as they gain each other’s trust and help each other home. 

I respectfully acknowledge the Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation and the Ngunnawal and Ngambri people on whose lands I live and dance. I pay my respects to their elders past and present and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
