Birdbrain
Australian Dance Theatre
Driven by dramatic visuals and pulsating rhythms, dancers literally
take flight as they propel themselves through space in Birdbrain.
In the Australian Dance Theatre's wry deconstruction of Swan Lake,
classical ballet, gymnastics, breakdance and astounding airborne
athleticism inform the vigorous choreography of Artistic Director
Garry Stewart.
Birdbrain has delighted audiences around Australia and the world
with its combination of remarkably acrobatic choreography and perceptive
references to Swan Lake.
"Take Swan Lake, one of the most famous ballets
in the world, tear it apart at the seams and stuff it with
raw rhythms, frenzied footwork and excessive energy and you
get Birdbrain" BBC, 2003
