FRINGE WORLD: 100 Years Of The History Of Dance As Told By One Man In 60 Minutes With An Energetic Group Finale
One of Australia’s most innovative artists, WAAPA graduate Joseph Simons, is bringing the hilarious show 100 Years Of The History Of Dance As Told By One Man In 60 Minutes With An Energetic Group Finale to FRINGE WORLD Festival in 2020.
100 Years Of The History of Dance … will shake up the classroom at the old Girls School every night from Monday, 3 February to Sunday, 16 February.
Bursting at the seams with fascinating facts, naughty stories and dance moves to die for, 100 Years Of The History of Dance … follows schoolboy Jacob presenting a school report on a topic of his choice. Not to be extra or anything but Jacob has decided to cover 100 years of dance! Exploring the lives of influential choreographers including Martha Graham, Merce Cunningham, Bob Fosse, Rudolf Nureyev, Pina Bausch, Gene Kelly and Paula Abdul, Jacob not only talks about them but demonstrates their signature style at the same time.
As he prepares, Jacob ponders the difference between ‘influence’ and ‘plagiarism’ and begins to question his own legacy … Ballet, jazz, modern and contemporary dance are all addressed in this physical theatre performance, which blends dance and theatre in an unusual, charming and funny way.
