DREAM SHAKE 

(in development)

 

DREAM SHAKE questions notions of success and failure, identity and individualism, through the mass media lenses of sport, self-help, pop culture and reality TV.

 

The work draws inspiration from: the aesthetics/dance moves of 90s boy bands; online cliched ‘daily quotes’ about failure from famous people (eg. Oprah Winfrey, Steve Jobs); group therapy; and Adam Curtis’ documentary ‘Century of the Self’.

This project has undergone an initial 2 week research period at Bankstown Arts Centre supported by Urban Theatre Projects, the Australia Council for the Arts and Canterbury-Bankstown Council.

Performers/Devisors: Nat Rose, Teik-Kim Pok, Nitin Vengurlekar, Malcolm Whittaker, Kevin Ng.

Sound: James Brown  

Dramaturgy: Clare Britton

I acknowledge the Bidjigal and Gadigal people as the traditional custodians of the land on which I live and work.  Sovereignty was never ceded.
