Events Description
Manic and surreal, witness your dreams—and nightmares—come to life in this dance production that pulls audiences into the deepest depths of their emotions.
“A profound sensory onslaught that shakes you, drains you, and yet, somehow, leaves you craving more.” —Theatre Weekly
Curtains open and close, revealing scenes of spellbinding surrealism where the unexpected unfolds at every turn. As dancers move across the stage, reality begins to blur—are you witnessing a dream or a nightmare? Theatre of Dreams pulls audiences into a surreal, unpredictable world where imagination and subconscious collide.
Choreographed by Hofesh Shechter, the work blends intricate movement with an electronic sonic score infused with elements of jazz and bossa nova, creating a soundscape as dynamic and surprising as the dancers themselves. Exploring the chaos of our subconscious, hopes, and fears, the piece offers a mirror into the psyche of humanity—every movement resonating with emotion, rocked to your core by the music.
With lighting design by longtime collaborator Tom Visser, witness a dreamlike world come alive, where what you expect is constantly overturned and imagination takes centre stage.
Astonishingly beautiful. Constantly inventive. Utterly engaging.
