STRUCTURES AND SADNESS

Tickets: 22

Six dancers construct a precarious world teetering on the point of a breakdown, Structure and Sadness presents a physical, emotional and visual response to the collapse of Melbourne’s Westgate Bridge.

Choreographer Lucy Guerin takes the 1970 collapse of Melbourne’s Westgate Bridge as a starting point for Structure and Sadness.  A complex and arresting dance work, Structure and Sadness bases its movement vocabulary on the engineering principles of compression, suspension, torsion and failure.
