Chunky Move sets out on national tour

Chunky Move tours Keep EverythingFollowing a critically acclaimed season in Melbourne in 2012, contemporary dance company Chunky Move will take Keep Everything on a national tour starting this week! Commencing in Adelaide on Wednesday, July 16, the company will then tour to Perth, Brisbane, Hobart, Sydney and Melbourne.

 

Keep Everything is a fusion of dance and performance from one of Australia’s most innovative choreographers, Anthony Hamilton. Combining forces with ARIA award-winning musicians, Kim Moyes and Julian Hamilton, Keep Everything splices choreography, electronica, spoken text and improvised movement to trace human evolution from primates to robots and back again.

 

Hallmarked by Chunky Move’s unpredictable, inventive style and showcasing three extraordinary Australian dancers, Keep Everything champions the absurd and sometimes vulgar nature of the spontaneous, by understanding that sometimes, it’s important to keep everything.

 

Performers include Benjamin Hancock, Lauren Langlois and Alisdair Macindoe. For more information, visit http://chunkymove.com.au. See tour dates and locations below.
