What the Body Does Not Remember
Ultima Vez
Australian Premiere / Exclusive to Adelaide
Belgium
“Adjectives seem unduly passive in describing What The Body Does Not Remember, an extraordinarily innovative dance piece.”
The New York Times
For the first time in Australia Wim Vandekeybus, one of the most influential choreographers in contemporary dance, shares an unsettling confrontation of dance and music: What the Body Does Not Remember. A remount of a work that changed contemporary dance forever, this piece is a feat of daring. It explores the intensity of moments when you don’t have a choice, when other things decide for you - falling in love; the second before the accident that has to happen.
