One of the most in demand choreographers in the world, Hofesh Shechter returns to Adelaide following the seismic impact of Grand Finale in 2019.

Twelve dancers move through portals of darkness and imagination, they tumble into a rabbit hole of evolving emotions and dreams. A hedonistic paradise where there is always more curtains, always more music, always more life.

Set to Hofesh Shechter’s own trademark cinematic composition, Theatre of Dreams takes a plunge into the subconscious exposing the fears and desires that elate us.

Astonishingly beautiful. Constantly inventive. Utterly engaging.

“The dance dazzles, defined by razor-sharp gestures, a contagious energy and the irresistible beauty which characterises Shechter’s work.”
