Ten choreographers from the New Zealand School of Dance present new works of brave and inventive dance.

They have collaborated with composer Thomas Press, cellist and composer Charles Davenport, and voice artist Flo Wilson, along with lighting and costume students from Toi Whakaari: NZ Drama School to create a very physical, tightly produced show.

Every year contemporary dance students are challenged to choreograph their own piece in their final year. This year’s talented dancers have made works that are personal, emotive and comical. For the first time, in Choreographic Season 2013, the students are breaking some of the traditional boundaries of performance, taking the audience on a journey that will move them both conceptually and physically.

Performances 15 - 25 May
7.30pm (except Sunday & Monday)
2pm matinees Saturday and Sunday

Ticket prices: $23 Adult,   $17 Student/Senior,   $12 Child under 12

NZSD dancer Anna Ishii

"A superb and beautifully danced programme that deserves an accolade...All we need now is live music to all the above and I will stop reviewing dance because there won't be much more to say, except 'thank you'."

DOMINION post

(review of Graduation Season 2010)

“An excellent program that really allowed these excellent graduates to shine. Director Garry Trinder is to be commended not only for the quality of his students' performance, but also for staging such an ambitious season that gives them a real taste of the rigours of a professional performing life.”

"The end of year performances by the students of the New Zealand School of Dance are always a special occasion and an opportunity to see these young dancers before they emerge into the profession. This is a very strong performance and all the dancers take the stage with strength, passion and absolute confidence."
