RETROACTION
by Xavier McGettigan
A collection of vinyl records can sit unattended or be constantly in play, but in either case they hold precious memories. Intended as a showcase of the ADC Impact Ensemble dancers incredible talent and versatility, Retroaction features a ‘wish list’ of music of artists like Paul Simon, Kate Bush, Hall & Oates, Nick Drake, Toto and more.
A BRIEF ENCOUNTER
by Stacey Carmichael
A girl walks into a room, she sits. What if the couch she sits on could tell the stories it's seen... love, pain, sleep, violence, laughter. We encounter people, we encounter objects sometimes only for a fleeting moment... but what stories do we leave behind? A dance & physical theatre piece.
THE VISITOR
by Xavier McGettigan
Inspired by Jim O’Rourke’s incredible 38-minute masterpiece of the same name, ‘The Visitor’ explores how it feels to be the Other, yet as the Self, can we truly be an outsider? Are we ever alone when we travel through with ourselves for company?
