      How do we deal with death and the fear it engenders as it closes in?

      Folklore, psychology and superstition come together in an enthralling cross-cultural mix of dance, puppetry and theatre.

      A Delicate Situation draws upon the ancient Malaysian myth of the vampiric Pontianak to tell the story of one woman’s struggle to come to terms with death.

Audiences engage with the artists, their projects and their creative process through a public program of artist talks and work-in-progress showings.

      Everyone’s favourite fairytale – with a twist.

      Alexei Ratmansky, formerly artistic director of the Bolshoi Ballet and now resident choreographer of American Ballet Theatre, has created a new version of Cinderella for The Australian Ballet.

      Set to Prokofiev’s beguiling score and featuring Surrealism-inspired sets and costumes by French designer Jérôme Kaplan, this new Cinderella is a fantasy land of 1940s glam – with some surprises in store!

      Ratmansky has been hailed as the saviour of traditional ballet, injecting fresh life into classical technique. His treatment of the original girl-made-good story is filled with his characteristic wit and flair.

      Following 2013′s Swan Lake, Cinderella promises to be another sell-out for The Australian Ballet.

      Edgy, gender-questioning dance
      AUSTRALIA

      Reassessment – a Double Bill is an exciting program of cutting edge contemporary dance work by local, multi-award winning choreographer Daniel Jaber.

      Solo work Too far again, not far enough… performed by Jaber asks both performer and audience to consider how they judge people in regards to gender roles and normalisation.

      The second piece, Agile is a fiercely physical quartette where gender boundaries and dance roles are blurred and bent to give new meaning to the male and female in dance.

      Using a ferocious physicality, original sound and fashion Reassessment promises to provoke and entertain.

      ADELAIDE PREMIERE

      A sensual and intense dance work by celebrated choreographer Meryl Tankard, acclaimed in Europe, the UK and USA.

      Featuring one of Australia’s most acclaimed dancers, Paul White, The Oracle explores the conflicting forces of nature and man, masculinity and femininity, violence and nurturing, strength and vulnerability.

      The Oracle is set to Stravinsky’s seminal composition for the infamous ballet The Rite of Spring, which caused riots at its Paris premiere in 1913.
